...Navy's sleek Tomahawk cruise missile. As big jack rabbits nibbled unconcernedly at the sagebrush in the blazing morning sun, a camouflage-painted, torpedo-shaped object whistled barely 100 ft. above the White Sands Missile Range at 500 m.p.h., headed dead on target. Brown listened to the whine of its turbofan for a few seconds, then put down his binoculars and turned to reporters near him, the first press group to witness the highly advanced missile. "I believe that it is important that the American public correctly perceive that the U.S. is not inferior to any country in military...
...after all, for Bogie, life--and dames--are simple. This is one of the few Allen films that Allen himself did not direct, and what is lost in manic humor is gained in coherence and sensitivity. Diane Keaton plays the paramour as usual, with the perfect blend of love, whine and neurosis.

His only real illness is myopia--he cannot see beyond himself--and he cannot see the truth of anything that goes on around...
...army has changed greatly. In many respects, the struggle resembles a World War II campaign in an African setting. There are battered green Dakota aircraft, ration packs, small base camps of whitewashed canteens and dusty beer halls, tin-roofed headquarters rooms with map-covered walls and the whine of heavy trucks stripping their gears in the red clay sludge that passes for roads. Rhodesia's 9,000-man army is less than a U.S. Army division in strength, and its war is still mainly fought at the level of small patrols-four-and five-man army "sticks...
