 As theyre departing for training camp, Maj. Reisman  (Lee Marvin (qv)) asks MP Sgt. Bowren (Richard Jaeckel (qv))  "What do you think?" to which he replies "I think the first chance  one of these guys gets, hell shoot the Major in the back." Thats  the same exchange the two had in _Dirty Dozen, The (1967)_ (qv).
