Famous Last Words

Just for grins...What are the most famous last words you guys have heard uttered from the mouths of our brethern? I'll start:

"Break out the fartsacks and the chow. They'll never find us here!"

Harrison Victor Fitzwater III Flintlock 1980

And in Fitzy's defence:

"You hit him low and I'll hit him high..."

Me to Dan Dodge as we planned to snatch Col. Moroney, Ft. Devens 1980

MSG Jerry Michael Schriver - RIP

It was Jerry Shriver who'd spoken the most famous rejoinder in SOG history, radioing his superiors not to worry that NVA forces had encircled his tiny team. "No, no," he explained, "I've got 'em right where I want 'em -- surrounded from the inside."

In memorium,

Mike

And as I recall as my wife saw you all lurking outside: "Damn Hon, apparently you are going to be gone for a while. Be nice and don't hurt them dear"

The Ever Classic, and I can not even begin to count the number of times that I have heard it in the past 30+ years:

Anything that starts off with:

Hey......wait a minute......hold my Beer and WATCH THIS.........!!!
