Jet launch has been canceled.
Clear both catapults.

Two flights returning.

Expect to recover aircraft
in ten minutes.

Stand by with fire bottle
for helicopter turn-up.

Shake a leg, forney.
There are two flights coming in.

We're here, ain't we?
Keep your jumper on, sir.

And, Mike, don't put that hat on
till you clear the deck.

- Captain Parker doesn't like it.
- Very well, sir.

Prepare to launch helicopter.

Top off all jets and check
fly one for ordinance load.

Launch helicopter.

My hat and scarf, please.

Can't you wait
till we get off the ship?

What if the captain
had seen you?

We don't save captains, nestor.
We save pilots.

When they are in the icy water
with only minutes to live,

makes them feel good to look up
here and see this green hat.

I know that, but I'm telling you, Mike,
you're gonna get yourself in trouble.

And another thing,

you gotta quit sassing
them officers like you just did.

When are you
gonna learn, nestor?

You can say anything you like
to them

as long as you put "sir"
on the end of it.

Take 215 and 207
down the deck-edge elevator.

Prepare to re-spot aircraft
for recovery.

We've got two flights of jets to land,
and they're low on fuel. Look alive.

Stand by to land jets.

Clear the catwalks portside aft.

Check number six wire. The
center fiddle bridge is down.

Let's hear the checks, boy.

- Wheels down.
- Wheels down.

- Flaps down.
- Flaps down.

- Hook down.
- Hook down.

- All down, sir.
- All down.

- Clear deck.
- Clear deck.

Come on, commander, keep your
nose up so your hook will catch.

Good boy.

202, number 3 wire.
He did real good.

Clear the catwalk aft.

211 to bluejay. 211 to bluejay.
Flame-out. Flame-out.

Cic is reporting
an emergency, sir.

Go ahead, cic.

211 reports a flame-out. We'll have
to ditch. Will dispatch a helicopter.

- What's his position?
- 18 miles out.

- Is there another jet with him?
- Affirmative, 210, his wingman.

- Can he ditch near the destroyers?
- Negative.

- Very well. Keep me advised.
- Aye, aye, sir

- have you got a fix on their position?
- Affirmative.

- How much fuel's the wingman got?
- 1,200 pounds.

Angel from bluejay.
Your vector, 345 magnetic.

211 will have to
ditch 18 miles out.

I say again, your vector,
345 magnetic. Bluejay out.

Bluejay from angel. Roger.

210 from bluejay.
Helicopter on way.

- What is the condition of 211? Over.
- 210 to bluejay.

211 is losing altitude rapidly
and is all set to ditch.

210 to bluejay. There he goes.

211 just ditched.
Aircraft sank immediately.

Pilot got out. Dye
marker is visible.

Downed pilot afloat.
Have him in sight.

I'm staying here.

Cic to flag plot.

210 requests permission
to stay with downed pilot.

Permission granted.
Who is the pilot in the water?

- Brubaker, sir.
- Brubaker?

Just an hour ago
a dispatch came in.

His wife and two kids are waiting for
him in Tokyo. He don't even know that.

- Keep me advised on brubaker.
- Aye, aye, sir.

- Brubaker, huh?
- You know him?

I don't think I've ever seen him,
but I bet I can describe him.

He's about 30, well built,

a good-looking boy
with a bit of a temper.

That's brubaker, all right.

Did you ever notice the pilots the
admiral takes special interest in

always look like that?

Now that you mention it, yeah.

That's what the admiral's son
George would've looked like.

Cic to flag bridge.

210 has sighted helicopter
approaching.

Tell 210 to return quickly. We
can't hold this course much longer.

Aye, aye, sir

Angel from 210.

Come on, forney, I can't
hold him in sight much longer.

210 from angel. I see him.
Go on home. Dinner's waiting.

Rogen

Have to jump in. I'll wait around until
the hornet sends one of its 'copters.

He looks froze! I'll
have to go down.

Sorry you have to ride
in the rumble, sir.

But I haven't got anybody here
to haul you inside.

Savo angel to bluejay.

Two angels coming home
with two frozen mackerel.

- Admiral.
- Go ahead.

Helicopter reports
brubaker aboard.

The hornet's helicopter
picked up forney's crewman.

- Good.
- Helicopter will land in three minutes.

- Turn right 90 degrees.
- Aye, aye, sir.

Round table, this is jehovah.

Tu rn right, 0-3-5.

Stand by. Execute.

Wish you could see this,
lieutenant. Awful pretty sight.

You know, sir, looks like
they're coming to meet us.

Land the two helicopters aft
and stand by with a stretcher.

Keep clear of those rotors.

Clear a passage
for that stretcher.

- How are you feeling, boy?
- He's all right.

- That water's pretty cold.
- Not bad when you're used to it.

Doctor, he's much too young
for Brandy.

- You weren't in the water.
- I know, but I had the hatch open.

It's awful cold in there.

Hello, Harry. You
don't look so bad.

- Hi, cag.
- How's it going?

I didn't know water could
get so cold without being ice.

- Feel like talking to the admiral?
- Now?

No, whenever you feel up to it,
just wants to chat with you.

The doctor thinks
you'll be fine by tonight.

- I'll send for a uniform.
- No, you don't have to dress.

The admiral said just come up
in your robe.

- See you later, Harry.
- Right.

I believe the admiral wants to
see me. I'm lieutenant brubaker.

Yes, sir. He's in his cabin.
I'll tell him you're here.

From the world-famous
chez paree in Chicago,

overlooking beautiful
lake Michigan,

the armed forces radio service
is bringing you

the music of Henry busse
and his orchestra.

This way, lieutenant.

Come in.

You sent for me, sir?

Yes, come in, son.

- Coffee?
- No, thank you, sir.

- How do you feel?
- I guess I'm thawed out by now.

I got the report
on your ditching.

How long did it stay afloat?

After the first bounce, sir,
I was a submarine.

Didn't have time to get
your life raft out?

It hooked on the seat. I was
lucky just to get myself out.

Those helicopter boys
are pretty good fishermen.

As far as I'm concerned, they
deserve every medal in the book.

You're out there all by yourself,
you know you can't very last long.

You're scared and you're
freezing, you curse and pray.

Suddenly you see that mixmaster
whirling at you out of nowhere.

You look up and there's forney
in his green hat.

You relax
because you got it knocked.

Well, I'm mighty glad
they pulled you out, son.

We can use you around here.

- Coming from you, I appreciate that.
- I mean it.

You fly well.

You go in low, you do your job.

You'd have a great future
in the Navy.

Why don't you
make it your career?

You know what I
think of the Navy, sir.

Still bitter, huh?

Go ahead, say what you think.
I always do.

Of course, I've said it
a couple of times too often.

Well, sir, the organized reserves were
drawing pay but weren't called up.

I was completely inactive
and yet I was.

I had to give up my home,
my law practice, everything.

Yes, I'm still bitter.

Sometimes I'm so bitter I could put
on a phony act to the flight surgeon

- get a green slip and get grounded.
- Why don't you?

That's what I kept asking myself
this afternoon

when I was bobbing around
in that ice water.

You're doing lot of thinking
at a time like that.

Mostly about your friends
who are back home

leading perfectly normal lives.

I wonder if you were back home
whether you wouldn't do the same.

It's not a question of indifference,
it's a question of distance.

They act that way they do
because they're there.

You don't quit, go on doing
your job because you're here.

It's just as simple as that.

Son, whatever progress
this world has made

has always been because of the
efforts and sacrifices of a few.

I was one of the few, admiral,

at new Guinea, Leyte, okinawa.
Why does it have to be me again?

Nobody ever knows
why he gets the dirty job.

And this is a dirty job.

- Militarily, this war is a tragedy.
- I think we ought to pull out.

Now that's rubbish, son.
You know it.

If we did, they'd take Japan,
indo-China, the Philippines.

Where would you make a stand?
The Mississippi?

All through history men had to fight
the wrong war in the wrong place

but that's the one
they're stuck with.

That's why one of these days

we'll knock out those Bridges
at toko-ri.

Do we have to knock out
those particular Bridges?

Yes, we must.

I believe without question,
some morning,

communist generals and commissars
will be holding a meeting

to discuss the
future of the war.

A messenger will run in
and tell them:

"They've knocked out
even the Bridges at toko-ri."

That little mission will
convince them we will never stop,

never weaken in our purpose.

And that's the day they'll quit.

But I didn't call you here
to discuss strategy

but to chew you out
because of your wife.

My wife?

- You knew she was in Japan.
- She made it.

I hope she's got
the kids with her.

You better hope
you don't get a court martial.

- I had nothing to do with it, sir.
- How did she and children get here?

Her father used to be a senator
for Massachusetts.

- I don't care if she's broken rules.
- War's no place for women.

I'll tell comnavfe you had nothing
to do with bringing her out.

- Thank you, sir.
- I'd like to meet your wife.

It'd be a pleasure.

Why don't you see if the surgeon
can spare you a nightcap.

- I'll do that, sir.
- Give you a good sleep.

In three days,
you'll be in Japan.

No more worries about take-offs
for a while.

No, sir.
It's gonna be a long three days.

Group one, idle.

Group two, idle.

Group one, full throttle.

Group three, full.

Come in.

Cag wants to see you, admiral.

Lee, commander of the air group
is here.

Send him in. Wait a minute.

- What do you think of Lee?
- He's a good man. Popular.

The pilots all swear by him.

I got a letter from a friend
in the personnel office.

They are looking for someone
for higher-command training.

Want my confidential
opinion of Lee.

Send him in.

Group one, full throttle.

Admiral, I received a dispatch
this morning from comfairjap.

Said the replacement aircraft
requested for the next tour

- are not available.
- Yes, I saw it.

Well, all we'll have
is what's aboard.

The captain's burning up
the engines.

- Have you talked to the captain?
- I tried to but he wouldn't see me.

I don't wonder. He's a
little busy berthing the ship.

Well, if he keeps doing it, sir, we
won't have any propeller planes left.

How would you berth a carrier
against the wind?

I'd anchor in the stream before I run
a lashed-down engine at top speed.

That's not fair to the pilots
who have to fly them, sir.

You know as well as I do the pinwheel
operation is necessary in this harbor.

There's no room to get a tug
between the dock and the ship.

Those planes can hold us off.

For the last 100 yards, yes,

but he's been running those engines
from the moment we hit the channel.

You consider a few engines
more valuable than a carrier?

No, sir, but they've only got so
many good hours. Burn them...

How long have you been
in the Navy, Lee?

Twenty years, sir.

Twenty years.

You're the commander
of the air group.

What would you think
of one of your pilots,

if he went over your head
and came to me?

You know the task-force
commander doesn't interfere

with the running of any ship.

Yes, sir, but under extraordinary
circumstances such as these...

You're coming up for promotion,
Lee.

Don't you realize captain Parker will
have to turn in a fitness report on you.

- Yes, sir.
- Suppose I did talk to the captain?

What kind of a fitness report
do you think he'd give you then?

I guess I was only looking at it
from my point of view, sir.

I just was thinking
of what was best for my pilots.

Next time, think twice.

Yes, sir, I will.

There are two things I don't
like to see a young officer do.

The first is going over
somebody's head

but once he does,
I hate to see him back down

so quickly from something
he believes is right.

He'll be all right for some job but
as far as higher command goes...

And I'll have to tell him so.

The uniform of the day
for Liberty is dress blue.

Liberty will expire
on board at 0700.

- Looking for your wife, sir?
- Yeah.

There she is.

Mrs. Brubaker!

You know, sir, I got the same kind of
reception waiting outside the gates.

- You married?
- Not yet. I may be after this leave.

Liberty party fall in.

Muster on the flight deck
for inspection!

Lower away. Easy!

All right, men.
Open up, front and center.

- Beer barrel, what's your handicap?
- I only have two hands.

I can't lift those beer mugs
fast enough.

Hey, beer barrel,
you need a caddie?

You bet. After the first nine
steins, they get pretty heavy.

Permission to
leave the ship, sir.

Darling, darling!

- Where are the kids?
- It was too long of a trip for them.

- How long is your leave?
- A week. Are the kids okay?

They're fine. I found a
wonderful Japanese nurse.

Come on,
they're dying to see you.

Have your Liberty cards ready. All
right, have your Liberty cards ready.

Have your Liberty cards ready.

There she is, nestor.

Hey, kimiko! Your man's back.

Not so fast, big boy. Things
are different. We got to talk.

All right, let's find some
cozy nook where we can talk.

- Daddy!
- Daddy!

Daddy! Daddy!

Kathy! Susie!

- We saw you getting out of the car.
- You did?

They've gotten so big.

- This is setsuko, daddy.
- How are you?

- Have they been good?
- Oh, yes.

- Come on. Come on.
- I'm coming. I'm coming.

Thank you.

Daddy, daddy, daddy!

Come here I want to
show you the fish pond.

Kathy, take your sweater off
and put it away in the closet.

And see that susie does too.

Daddy, daddy, daddy!

I want to show you the funny bed
I sleep in.

Okay, young lady, you show me.

Why don't you leave me alone?

When I'm standing out there
with those paddles in my hands,

I have enough to worry about,
you guys.

When I get ashore, I don't
wanna worry about anything.

One thing does worry me though.

Have they got enough beer
in Japan?

- Good evening, boys.
- Good evening, admiral.

- Brubaker, how's the family?
- Fine, thank you, sir.

- This is Mrs. Brubaker, Nancy.
- How do you do?

I thought your husband
was going to take off like a jet

when he heard you were here.

- And now I understand why.
- Thank you.

- I was pleased to see him too.
- Won't you sit down, sir?

Thanks.

- They didn't keep you in Tokyo long.
- No, they don't any more.

Not since that first
press conference.

I told them we were fighting
Russian guns, Russian radar,

Russian planes
and Russian submarines.

Our men were being killed
by Russian equipment

manned by Russian experts.

Ever since then, they've bundled
me out here as fast as possible.

- I'm lieutenant brubaker.
- Gentleman to see you, sir.

Excuse me.

- Will you have a drink?
- Doctor won't let me.

- What is it, nestor?
- Mike's been in a terrible fight.

- Just Mike?
- No, sir.

But I got away.
Mike's in jail in Tokyo.

- I came out as quick as I could.
- What happened?

His girl's marrying a bosun
from the essex.

Oh, it was bad, sir. If you don't
come, he'll be locked up permanent.

Nestor, Tokyo is 60 miles away.

- I'll phone the mp5.
- Calling won't help, sir.

Mike clobbered two mps, along
with the gang from the essex.

What did you two do?
Take on the whole town?

Yes, sir. Practically.

- Nestor, I'd like to do something...
- Please, you gotta help Mike.

Okay, I'll come. You wait here.

Excuse me, admiral. There's
been some trouble in Tokyo.

What kind of trouble?

It's Mike forney again, sir.

A girl, another sailor, a brawl,
usual consequences. He's in jail.

Harry, you don't have to get
mixed up with brawling sailors.

Darling, if forney were in China
I'd have to help him.

Harry!

If you were freezing to death
in the sea

and a man brought his helicopter
right over your head and rescued you,

wouldn't you help that man
if he got in trouble?

- Did Harry crash at sea?
- Yes, four days ago.

You know your husband's at war

but you can't believe
that he'd crash into the sea.

Hasn't Harry told you
anything about what he's doing?

He never talks about the war.

With the rest of them, he's been
doing a tough job and doing it well.

When we go back to sea, he's
got a tougher one ahead of him.

He's going to have
to fly against some

certain Bridges.

- Ask him to tell you about them.
- I don't want to think about it.

I suppose to you it's a
sign of weakness, isn't it?

Maybe not weakness.

Like most people at home,
you've been protected,

you are ignorant
and defenceless.

Harry doesn't want me to worry.

That's the way
my son George felt.

Harry often reminds me of him.

Same quick temper and same
thorough way of doing things.

As a matter of
fact, in certain ways,

you remind me a little
of George's wife.

She didn't want to think
about it either, is that it?

When George was killed at
midway, she never recovered.

For a while she tried to make
love with every man in uniform.

Thought he might die one day.

Then she grew to loathe herself,
attempted suicide.

I don't know where she is now
or what she's doing.

Once she was my...

My son's wife.

And you think, if things
go wrong at those Bridges,

- I might be like that?
- Perhaps.

If you don't let yourself think
about certain things.

If you refuse to acknowledge
what you are up against,

terrible consequences
can follow.

I shouldn't have come out here.
That's what you're trying to tell me.

No.

In spite of all the regulations,
maybe you were right to come.

Perhaps when George was killed, if
my wife had come out to join me,

things might have
been different.

But she stayed at home,
like a good Navy wife.

When our other boy was killed,
trying to torpedo a Japanese carrier,

it was just too much for her.

You lost two sons and your wife?

No. Margaret is still alive.

But all that was gentle

and loving about her
slowly withered away.

Now she sits quietly
alone in a room,

knitting a baby's sweater.

Admiral, I'm so ashamed.

Just be grateful for what you have.
And above all, be honest with yourself.

If I can't face the reality now,

then there won't be much
hope for me afterward

if anything should happen.

I have a feeling
you'll be all right.

Let's get your little girls
and have dinner.

Come on, nestor.

Major, I'm lieutenant brubaker.

You've got a chief here
by the name of forney.

He's off our ship, the savo island.
I'd like to get him out.

I wish I could help
you, lieutenant.

But your wild irishman
just wrecked the dance hall.

He also saved the
lives of four pilots.

Look, lieutenant, I got a lot of
monsters back there in that cage.

Every one of them
was a hero in Korea.

But here in Tokyo,
they're all monsters.

Forney's a helicopter pilot.

The other day
I had to ditch my plane at sea.

These two men saved my life.

This man here jumped
into the ocean.

And I suppose his face got
chopped up that way by the waves?

- Well, I know there was a brawl...
- A brawl?

Lieutenant, a brawl is when six
guys get to throwing punches.

But these two monsters took on
half of Tokyo.

- Are you married, major?
- Yes.

Well, we just got
in at noon today.

I haven't seen my wife and kids
for over a year.

I left them and came up here
to get Mike out of jail.

That's what I think
of these two men.

Well, I...

You willing to cough up 80 bucks
for the damage he did?

I'd pay 800 if I had to.

Okay, sergeant,
drag forney out of here.

Sign here.

He's yours but you're
not getting any bargain.

I knew you could
do it, lieutenant.

Thanks, major. Come on.

Lieutenant, don't let
them get away from you.

There are parts of Tokyo
comparatively unharmed yet.

- Look, lieutenant...
- You are going back to yokosuka.

You gotta come with me.
You gotta talk to kimiko.

She can't marry that ape
from the essex.

- Look, Mike, I'm not a...
- Sure you are.

She'll listen to you, lieutenant.
Please do me this one favor.

- Where is she?
- Follow me, sir.

Pardon me, sir, but you're
not supposed to be here.

It's all right, son,
he's with me.

Lieutenant, there she is.

Kimiko, this is
lieutenant brubaker.

I wondered whether any girl
warranted a riot. I guess you do.

- Thank you, lieutenant.
- He wants to talk to you.

I'm very sorry, lieutenant.

While Mike at sea,
I lose my heart to essex man.

Essex not at sea.

But Mike is a fine man. You
couldn't do better than Mike.

I know. Mike good man.
But I lose my heart, lieutenant.

Not in my dress, you don't!

Lieutenant, she cost me two
months' pay! Leave me alone.

- Hey, Mike.
- What is it?

What's going on over there?
Break it up!

Get out of the way, fellas.
Break it up.

Break it up! Break it up!
What's going on here?

I'll guess you'll live.

- Kimiko!
- Don't worry, sir, I'll get him back.

- Kimiko, that's my girl!
- We're going back to the ship.

Kimiko.

I'm sorry, darling.

It's all right.

Did you get him out of jail?

Yes, I got him out.

Admiral tarrant told me
about Mike forney.

I wish he hadn't.

Don't worry. I've had it now.
No one ever crashes twice.

Harry, what are the Bridges you
have to bomb when you go back?

Tell me about the
Bridges, darling.

You know, I think Kathy and
susie ought to have piano lessons

when they get to be a bit older.

It's funny, I was thinking the
same thing just the other day.

I always wanted to learn.

Never got around to it.

Same here.

- They say if you start young enough...
- They've got new methods now.

I know.

Mildred Porter learned
in a few months.

Even after five weeks.

Harry, you've got to tell me
about those Bridges.

The Bridges span a narrow gap
between two mountains.

It's one of the most important
targets in Korea.

Consequently,
it's fortified accordingly.

Although we're only over
the target about 30 seconds,

it's a lifetime.

Every kind of gun imaginable
is hidden in those mountains.

The men behind those guns
know where we're coming from

and where we're headed.

They know we're not going to fly
above the mountains.

We're going to fly between them.

We're coming in
low and straight.

There's no room
to twist or duck.

And there's no surprising them.

They're just sitting there,

waiting for us,

hoping we'll come.

That's toko-ri, Nancy.

I'm glad you told me.

Does it help?

I think so.

You didn't want to tell me because
you didn't want me to worry.

I don't want you to worry
either. About me, I mean.

I know what the admiral
was trying to tell me.

I had to face those Bridges too.

Well, I have.

And I'll be all right now.

- I'm going to swim across the pool.
- So am I.

- Harry, I'm not so sure about this.
- Don't be silly.

You ladies go in there.
I'll go in here.

Harry, you get
in the pool first.

We're not coming out
until I know the coast is clear.

Okay, you modest violets.

- Why does the water taste so funny?
- It's mineral water from the spring.

- Watch me swim, daddy.
- Okay.

That's fine, Kathy. Fine.

Harry, are you sure
that door's locked?

Absolutely.

- Watch me swim too, daddy.
- Okay, susie.

Hey, hey. This is private.
We had it reserved.

No, private, reserved.

Number one, good morning.

No, no, no, you
don't understand.

We had it reserved.
The whole pool is reserved.

- No! No!
- Harry, do something!

Take a deep breath.

That means "good morning"
in Japanese.

Belong you?

Belong me.

- Keiko. Takako.
- I'm Kathy.

I'm susie!

Happy family.

Yes, happy family!

This is tilly.

She picks up aircraft and gets them
off the deck if they lose a wheel.

- Why do they call her tilly?
- Why do they call you Nancy?

The ship will get under way
in 45 minutes.

Visitors are requested to be off
the ship in 15 minutes.

Now hear this.

The officer of the deck is
shifting his watch to the bridge.

Here comes beer barrel.

Hey, what was your score,
beer barrel?

Hey, what's par for the cruise,
beer barrel?

- Pull your flaps up, boy.
- You sure are overloaded.

Report my return aboard, sir.

- Get refuelled, beer barrel.
- Report my return aboard, sir.

Can I help you with those, sir?

Thanks, Sonny,
but this is a man's work.

We've got a few minutes yet.

That's Mike forney.

- Green scarf?
- Yeah.

I never knew there were
so many beautiful girls.

- We cornered the market.
- Best thing for you was losing kimiko.

Nestor, you're a wise man.

There she is, girls.

The savo, the greatest
flat top in the fleet.

What's called this ship?

That? That's the essex.

Not here, Mike.
There's too much brass and sp5.

You're right.

She ain't worth
it. What's one girl?

The flower of Japan.

The pride of the fleet, my lad.
The best man won.

Thank you.

Bless you, my children.

Forney's at it again!

- Chico's in a fight!
- Swing at me and I'll flatten you!

- Kill that little shrimp!
- That's the guy that started it!

- Give me a hand!
- Who do you think you're hitting?

Get back, get back.
This ain't no place for a lady.

- Come on, we need you!
- Charlie, come on!

What's going on here?

- Break it up.
- Back to the ship.

Get on board or
we'll run you in.

- Come on, come on. Let's go.
- Come on, back to the ship.

And that's the man you spent half
the night getting out of jail?

Yes, and I'd do it again.

Although we're going out to get
new pictures of the target area,

this photo will give you some idea of
how rough this mission is going to be.

In order to determine
the tactical approach,

I'll fly the machine to
get the pre-strike photos.

Brubaker, you'll fly cover for me.
Stay at least 3000 feet above me.

Keep away from even altitudes.
Makes it tougher on the gunners.

We'll take off in an hour. All
right, Martin, you've got it.

Boy, what a spot to take pictures.
When I go I want bombs, not cameras.

All cameras ready
on photographic plane.

Clear port and starboard
catwalks forward.

Prepare to launch
photographic mission.

Launch jets.

Bluejay, this is Peter.
Peter 21. My feet are dry.

Crossing first checkpoint.

There's our second checkpoint.
Town of majon-ni.

Just passed yangdok.

Target 15 miles ahead.

Remember, cag, all you got
is a camera. Get in and get out.

I'm only gonna take their pictures.
But watch how mad they get.

Commencing run.

I've seen it rough, cag,
but that was the roughest.

- You all right?
- I think so.

I felt something.
I could have been hit.

My tail-hook position light came
on. Drop down, look me over.

- Nothing visible.
- Good. Mission completed.

Returning to carrier.

Real estate sure looks better
on the way home.

Stand by to land jet aircraft.

- Wheels down.
- Wheels down.

- Flaps down.
- Flaps down.

- Hook down.
- Hook down.

- All down, sir.
- All down.

- Clear deck.
- Clear deck.

Clear deck. Land aircraft.

Nice going, cag. Roger pass.

Stand by to rig a new barricade.

I'm all right. I'm all right.

Bluejay to 209er. Foul deck.
Peter Peter 21 crashed. He's okay.

What is your state?

Fuel critical.

- Only 650 pounds remaining.
- Barrier being repaired.

- Estimate ten-minute delay.
- I'll be out of fuel.

- How about the hornet?
- Hornet not spotted for recovery.

Orbit ship.

Rogen

get that barrier cleared
and that plane out of there.

Man tilly.
Barricade is not repairable.

Tilly will be used
to protect planes forward.

I've only got 450 pounds left. I
don't want to go into the sea again.

Position tilly in the
number-three barrier spot.

- On the double!
- Impossible to repair barrier.

Must use tilly to protect planes
forward. Deck is pitching badly.

Do you wish to attempt
deck landing or to ditch?

I'll come aboard.

If he doesn't make it the
first time, he'll have to ditch.

He hasn't got enough fuel
for another pass.

I'll bring him in
if tilly doesn't bother him.

Stand by.

All personnel, clear the deck aft.
Stand by with crash equipment.

Bring me in, beer barrel.
No wave-off.

Come on. I know the deck's dancing,
but you got to make it this time.

All planes aboard.
Continue clearing barrier.

Strike Peter Peter 21 below
as soon as possible.

Commence refueling. The smoking
lamp is out throughout the ship.

Maybe you'd better not fly
for a few days.

I'm all right, thanks.
This is all I needed.

What are they doing?
Moving you, doc?

Well, they're not moving me.

We're sending some medical
supplies to the destroyer.

She's coming alongside to
pick up forney and gamidge.

- Forney and gamidge?
- Captain's having them transferred.

They're going to the
helicopter scow at yodo island.

- So long, gamidge. Good luck.
- Thanks. Same to you, sir.

Watch out, nestor.
Don't get your feet wet.

You're liable to catch a cold!

So long, lieutenant.
We'll send you the 80 bucks.

Good luck, nestor!

They want us to fly behind enemy
lines three times a day after meals.

I don't mind rough duty, though.
I hate commies.

- Take care. Pilots need men like you.
- Thank you, sir.

If you ever have to ditch around
wonsan harbor, we'll fish you out.

You look kind of edgy. You know what
I used to do when I got jittery?

I used to walk out to
the forward end of that deck

and let the spray hit me
in the kisser.

- Used to fix me up every time.
- Forney, let's go.

Why don't you try it sometime,
lieutenant.

The two stone Bridges
offer the best targets.

But you'll also have to hit
the low ones.

We'll give you the coordinates
and checkpoints

at the final briefing tomorrow
afternoon.

Now, your secondary target will
be this fuel dump at tokchon.

We've hit it before but there's new
activity in the area. Any questions?

Yes, about toko-ri. Where is the
heaviest concentration of flak?

Here are the shots
from my wing camera.

Does that answer your question?

The flight will consist
of three divisions.

We'll approach from the west and
attack three times if necessary.

Martin, take your four jets
in to suppress flak.

I'll follow on the
western Bridges.

Brubaker, your division will
take the two Bridges to the east.

Roy, you'll be the
last man down.

You'll give a damage report
after each attack.

Take-off will be at 1500 so
we'll have the sun at our backs.

Any questions?

We 're back in the broadcasting
room on a sunny day in Los Angeles.

The temperature's in the 805.

Eighty thousand fans are getting
the thrill of their lives.

The rams trail the 49ers
by six points.

The winner meets Cleveland
for the title. The rams line up.

Van brock/in drops back to pass.
He gets good protection.

It's a long one to fears. He's
dropped on the six-yard line...

First and goal-to-goal.

Dear Nancy,

these will probably
be the last words

you will ever receive from me.

Dear Nancy,

I wish I could tell you
how wonderful it was to see you.

I will never forget
the picture of you...

Standing there on the dock
as we came in.

- What are you doing?
- I was writing a letter to Nancy.

- I can't sleep with this racket.
- I've noticed that too.

It always seems louder before you
go out on a mission. You all right?

Look, Harry, this is an important
mission, very important.

We've got to do a first-rate job.
I can't afford to take chances.

I know.

A guy comes clean and
grounds himself, I'm grateful.

If he tries to bluff it out
and endangers an entire mission,

it's unforgivable.

Think it over, Harry.

Pilots, man planes.
Pilots, man planes.

Stand by to start jet engines.

Launch jets.

Flight from cag. Target
dead ahead. Prepare to attack.

205 to cag.
Commencing flak-suppression run.

- 212 from zero zero.
- This is 212. Damage report follows.

Three Bridges down.
One railway bridge intact.

Are you sure? It looked
like direct hits on all.

Negative.

Stand by for second attack.

Cag to flight.
Commencing second attack.

All Bridges down! All Bridges
down! Nice going, cag!

Cag to flight.
Proceed to secondary target.

Cag to flight.
Secondary target below.

Commencing first run.

210 from 209er.
I think I just took a hit.

210 from 209er. I just
took a hit. Where are you?

Harry, this is cag.
210 must have radio failure.

I have you in sight.
I'll be with you in a minute.

No visible damage.
Vapor coming from your fuselage.

- Could be hydraulic fluid or fuel.
- Rpm surging a little bit.

Everything else seems okay.

Cag to 205. Martin, take over.
I'm staying with brubaker.

Cag from 205. Roger. Will stay
above and keep you in sight.

Thanks cag.

I was worried for a minute. I thought
I might have to land. I'll make it.

- Brubaker from cag. What state?
- Fuel okay. 2000 pounds.

Keep checking. Hydraulic
fluid would be gone by now.

- Can you still see a vapor trail?
- Affirmative.

Don't your gauges show it?

- Can't tell.
- You'll make it to the sea.

Wonsan harbor's
just over the Ridge.

If you can make the helicopter
scow they'll pick you up.

Yeah, sure, I'll make it.

I'm losing fuel fast now cag.
Down to 1600 pounds.

You'd better call the word now.

You'd better call the scow.

Yeah. Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!

This is 209er. Rdf call.

Thirty-five miles
north-west wonsan.

Flak damage.
Losing fuel rapidly.

Let's go, nestor.

Alligator 1 to 209er.
Give me a call for a bearing.

Emergency! Emergency!
Prepare helicopter for launch.

One-two-three-four-four-three.

Launch helicopter.

Bluejay, bluejay.
This is alligator 1.

- Alligator 1, this is bluejay. Go ahead.
- 209er has had an emergency.

He bears 330 degrees,
35 miles from wonsan.

Air op, cic. We have an
emergency. Stand by to ride.

- Can't last much longer, cag.
- You're doing fine. You'll make it.

Fuel tank's empty. I've had it.

I still think you
can make it, Harry.

I've got enough altitude to glide to
the water if I can clear the Ridge.

Can't make it.

- What are you gonna do, Harry?
- Crash.

They love to fire at parachutes.

Alligator 1, this is zero zero.

209er crash-landing,
bearing 335 degrees.

- Twenty-five miles from yodo island.
- Roger your transmission.

Trying to divert aircraft to the crash
for rescap protection of down pilot.

There's a clearing ahead.
Looks pretty good.

I see it.

Looks like an irrigation ditch
along the side.

That's right. Try to land near it.
Get out fast. Make for that ditch.

- Hit every item on your checklist.
- I'm doing that now.

Tighten your shoulder straps
as tight as you can stand them.

- I can hardly breathe.
- Gun?

I've got one.
Not that I've ever used it.

The other division's coming in
above us.

How does the field look, Harry?

- You pick them real good.
- Jettison your canopy.

Get out fast, Harry. No matter
what happens, get out fast.

Forney!

Nestor!

Nestor!

Nestor.

They was gonna give nestor
a medal too.

How much longer can them
ads stay?

Not very long. They must be
running out of ammunition.

They won't send another
'copter now, not after dark.

If we can hold out, they'll find
us in the morning. Here, take this.

Do you know how
to fire a carbine, sir?

Just release the safety and squeeze
the trigger. It fires automatic.

I'm a lawyer from Denver, Colorado.
I probably can't hit a thing.

How did you get out here
in a smelly ditch in Korea?

That's just
what I've been asking myself.

Better get these things off.
Too good a target.

"The wrong war in the wrong place and
that's the one you're stuck with."

What did you say, lieutenant?

You ever hear admiral tarrant
go on about this war?

About the chosen few
who have to lay it on the line?

Nestor and me never done much
fraternising with admirals.

I can see now he was right.

You fight simply
because you're here.

Watch out, lieutenant!

- Where's Lee?
- He's waiting on the bridge, sir.

Admiral from ci c.

Just received final report, sir,
authenticated by army intelligence.

Jet aircraft crashed.
Helicopter shot down.

Three Americans killed
by communist troops.

Why was brubaker abandoned?

Admiral, we kept a risk cap
over him as long as we could.

One helicopter crashed,
why didn't you call in another?

I called in the downed-pilot report.
I had to leave. My fuel was low.

The first helicopter hadn't arrived.
There was nothing I could do.

- Was brubaker hit at the Bridges?
- No, at our secondary target.

We got the Bridges. We had bombs
so we went to the fuel dump.

- Was that good judgment?
- Admiral, we did everything right.

I put brubaker in charge of the
division because I knew he'd fly low.

He did just that.

I don't care what fitness report
you give me. It was a good mission!

It cost the lives of three men.
Forney, gamidge and brubaker.

I know how you feel. But what makes
you think you're the only one?

He may have been your boy, admiral,
but he was my boy too. I lost him.

You're right, cag.

You're right.

I was wrong about cag, Evans.
He's a good man. A good man.

I'd like to write brubaker's
wife but what can you say?

How do you explain this
to the mother of two little girls?

Prepare to launch jets.

Where do we get such men?

They leave this ship
and they do their job.

Then they must find this speck
lost somewhere on the sea.

When they find it, they have
to land on its pitching deck.

- Where do we get such men?
- Launch jets.
