Pelton was the only journalist with the Green Beret and CIA team whose story is featured in "Horse Soldiers"

The song the Special Forces soldiers sing while in the Chinook helicopter with the lyrics, "... Silver wings upon their chests..." is called 'The Ballad of the Green Beret', by Sgt Barry Sadler. It was popularized during the Vietnam War.
"Colonel Mulholland: The most important thing you take into battle, is the reason why."
"General Dostum: I will let Atta have the city today - tomorrow, we'll see. Captain Mitch Nelson: Well, you made the right choice. General Dostum: Right choice? There are no right choices here. This is Afghanistan - graveyard of many empires. Today you are our friend, tomorrow you are our enemy. It won't be any different for you. Soon, America will become just another tribe here. You will be cowards if you leave, you will be our enemies if you stay."
