Sergeant Gerheim holds up a rifle. "You will
give your rifle a girl's name. This is the only
pussy you people are going to get. Your days of
finger-hanging ol' Mary Jane Rottencrotch through
her pretty pink panties are over. You're married
to this piece, this weapon of iron and wood, and
you will be faithful."

They run. And they sing:

Well, I don't know
But I been told
Eskimo pussy
Is mighty cold...

I can't believe I missed this. Without a second thought:

"Me so horny. Me love you long time."

Really pretty much the entire first half of the film, but I'll go with "You are nothing but unorganized grabasstic pieces of amphibian shit."

"Grabassitic" = best adjective ever.
"Amphibian" is especially poignant from a Marine.
"Unorganized" is a little over the top.

"You had best square your ass away and start shitting me Tiffany cufflinks or I will definitely fuck you up."
