I think the full quote was "Zippety doo dah, zippety deh! My oh my, what a
wonderful day! Plenty of fighting them on the beaches, coming my way.
Wonderful feeling, it was their finest hour. Mr Roosevelt's on my shoulder.
It's the troops! They're actual! Everything is satisfactual. Zippety doo
dah, zippety deh, never in the field of human conflict has there been such a
wonderful day! "
But they cut it for the newsreel speeches.
