This might end up in Cafe Society but here goes. I was watched an episode of Space: Above and Beyond a while back and in a scene before they go into battle the chaplain(?) reads a passage from the bible. What is that passage and is it used in real terms when soldiers go into battle. I can’t remember it but I know it is quite a famous passage.
I don’t know, but the title reminded me of an old Richard Pryor routine. He’s talking about WWII submarine movies, and the scene is inside the sub just before it puts out to sea. The skipper (or it might have been the chief) is talking:
“There’s just one thing I want to say before we take off. Some of you are going to get wiped out. That’s all I wanted to say before we take off.”
