Captain Nike Alexander is in Afghanistan for one reason only—to use her pilot skills. She doesn't have time for men, especially military men.

Ridiculously Simplified Synopsis edit
Quotes edit
-
“Captain, how many hours do you have flying this bird?" "Oh, let's see, Captain, I got my helo-driver's license at Disneyland in Orlando, Florida. Does that count?" "I feel better, Captain Alexander. So long as Mickey Mouse signed off on your pilot's license I feel safe and sound." "Actually, it was Minnie Mouse who signed it. You have a problem with that?" "No, not at all. Now if Goofy had signed it, I'd be worried.”
Captain Gavin Jackson, Captain Nike Alexander -
“You look kind of pretty in that red hijab (scarf, burka). Do you like wearing it?" "No, but I respect their traditions." "In their culture, most women accept that their body and face are to be looked upon only by their husbands. The way the men figure it, if the woman is hidden, she's not a temptation to others." "Why don't their husbands show some responsibility for what's between their legs?Then a woman would be safe to wear whatever she wants.”
Gavin, Nike -
“I just can't fall for another military man." "Oh, that's right- you think I'll die in combat." "There's a damn good chance of that." "Well, look at you. You have an Apache strapped to your butt and you're always a fair target for the Taliban, too." "That's different." "How? A bullet is a bullet." "You're infuriating. Were you on the debate team at your college?" "Actually, a university. And yes, I was on the debate team for four years. I like arguing." "Of course you do.”
Nike, Gavin -
“There's nothing like American food." "But you're Greek." "I know, but over the years of being in the States and then with the original BJS, I really got into the American junk food.”
Nike, Gavin
