Lt. Col. Henry Blake : Oh, golly. Whatever you people decide is fine with me.

Capt. Benjamin Franklin 'Hawkeye' Pierce : We know the Chinese are more decent with our wounded than the North Koreans.

Capt. Benjamin Franklin 'Hawkeye' Pierce : I think it's a real offer.
Lt. Col. Henry Blake : Yeah, but if it's not, if you guys get killed. I'll never hear the end of it.
