"Every German we meet wearing a Nazi uniform... they're gonna die." ― Aldo Raine

"My name is Lieutenant Aldo Raine. And I'm putting together a special team, and I need me eight soldiers." ― Lt. Raine's speech to his men.

Lieutenant Aldo "The Apache" Raine is an American soldier in World War II and the main protagonist of Inglorious Basterds. He is the leader of "the Basterds", a group of soldiers dedicated to killing Nazis brutally and invoking fear in those who remain. He's obsessed with this and goes as far as to carve swastikas into the foreheads of Nazis so they cannot hide what they were.

He was portrayed by Brad Pitt who also voiced Metro Man from Megamind.
