William Bryant: Col. Crook

Quotes 

• Gen. Rutledge : I'm going to make a recommendation to Washington, Colonel.

  Col. Crook : Yes, General?

  Gen. Rutledge : I'm going to recommend that they stop sending out men to recommend. It seems to me you've got the situation pretty well in hand.

  Col. Crook : Thanks. We could use a little less looking into and a little more looking after.

• [last lines] 

  Col. Crook : He's fought a lot of battles, Hondo. Won most of them. But out here, he'll be remembered for the one he didn't fight.

  Hondo Lane : Yeah. It's too bad they don't give medals for that.
