Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie : Sergeant, I'll need you and three other raiders - volunteers from our group.
Sgt. Teal : Yes, sir. There's me and Dixon, Brown...

Sgt. Teal : Yes, sir. Volunteers for what, sir?
Sgt. Teal : We're going to take a ride into Mexico.
Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie : Yes, sir.

Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie : There's every possibility that we may fail on the mission we are about to undertake. There's every need that we do *not* fail, because if we do the United States will probably be at war with Mexico. I imagine that you've all heard of Michael Lucas O'Hara.
Cpl. Brown : General Michael Lucas O'Hara?
Cpl. Dixon : The Yankee who sold out his battalion at Pine Ridge?
Sgt. Teal : He disappeared in '64!
Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie : He's reappeared in San Rodrigo, Mexico. Our orders are to go in and get him. Further, our orders are to bring him out... and within a week's time... and without being seen by Federales. San Rodrigo is 340 miles below the Mexican border. I think you all understand what that means.

Sgt. Teal : Sir, if the Colonel will pardon me asking...
Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie : If you close the door, the Colonel will pardon you asking.
