to keep the Cold War
from turning hot,

348
00:23:31,893 --> 00:23:34,374
and Cevoli here tells me
this is the best place
to do so.

349
00:23:34,548 --> 00:23:36,463
We ship out next week.

350
00:23:36,637 --> 00:23:38,117
Look forward to
having you onboard.

351
00:23:44,558 --> 00:23:45,603
All right, all right.

352
00:23:47,518 --> 00:23:49,650
You remember when I told you
to get up to speed, and fast?

353
00:23:50,521 --> 00:23:52,479
I meant speedier and faster.

354
00:23:52,653 --> 00:23:54,481
Carrier quals are at
the end of the week.

355
00:23:54,655 --> 00:23:56,483
You can'’t land a Corsair
on the Leyte,

356
00:23:56,657 --> 00:23:58,659
uh, you get yourself
a nice dry-land job in Topeka

357
00:23:58,833 --> 00:24:00,922
or some place even shittier,
God help you.

358
00:24:01,662 --> 00:24:02,663
Either way,

359
00:24:03,751 --> 00:24:05,449
start settling up
your bar tab, boys.

360
00:24:06,450 --> 00:24:07,842
We are leaving Rhode Island.

361
00:24:08,016 --> 00:24:10,062
[pilot] Ah, here it comes.

362
00:24:15,067 --> 00:24:19,811
Just because I'’m going
doesn'’t mean I'’m fighting,
Daisy.

363
00:24:21,116 --> 00:24:22,161
[sighs]

364
00:24:28,776 --> 00:24:30,691
That'’s the deal, darling.

365
00:24:31,997 --> 00:24:32,998
Remember?

366
00:24:37,045 --> 00:24:38,612
We knew this day might come.

367
00:24:40,527 --> 00:24:42,747
And yet it doesn'’t
make it any easier.

368
00:24:53,888 --> 00:24:55,150
But we'’ll be okay.

369
00:24:58,980 --> 00:24:59,894
Mad...

370
00:25:00,068 --> 00:25:01,200
[chuckles]

371
00:25:02,593 --> 00:25:03,724
...but okay.

372
00:25:04,290 --> 00:25:05,334
Okay.

373
00:25:08,163 --> 00:25:10,775
[sighs]

374
00:25:13,691 --> 00:25:14,866
Jesse, what'’s going on?

375
00:25:15,649 --> 00:25:16,650
Honestly...

376
00:25:21,481 --> 00:25:23,875
My mind'’s on landing
that Corsair tomorrow.

377
00:25:26,138 --> 00:25:28,662
You never met a plane
you couldn'’t land, Jesse.

378
00:25:28,836 --> 00:25:32,144
This plane
will be the death of me.

379
00:25:32,318 --> 00:25:34,538
I can'’t see like I can
out of a Bearcat.

380
00:25:37,758 --> 00:25:38,977
Fogs my instincts.

381
00:25:43,459 --> 00:25:44,852
Your instincts...

382
00:25:46,375 --> 00:25:49,204
are one of the few things
in this world that I trust.

383
00:25:51,511 --> 00:25:52,947
And if you can'’t
trust that plane,

384
00:25:53,121 --> 00:25:55,167
you gotta put it in whatever
will get you down safe.

385
00:26:14,578 --> 00:26:15,579
Yes, ma'’am.

386
00:26:17,885 --> 00:26:19,931
-[Marty] You ready, Carol?
-[Carol] Try and keep up, Marty.

387
00:26:20,105 --> 00:26:22,063
[Bo] Bottom of the board
buys drinks tonight, boys.

388
00:26:22,237 --> 00:26:23,717
[Marty] I hope
you brought cash.

389
00:26:23,891 --> 00:26:25,371
[Bo] Won'’t need it,
we'’ll be spending yours.

390
00:26:25,545 --> 00:26:27,199
[door opens]

391
00:26:31,464 --> 00:26:32,508
[door closes]

392
00:26:54,095 --> 00:26:58,665
[breathes deeply]

393
00:27:16,161 --> 00:27:17,510
You ain'’t shit.

394
00:27:23,603 --> 00:27:25,344
[exhales]

395
00:27:29,130 --> 00:27:31,916
You ain'’t never landing
that plane, nigger.

396
00:27:38,574 --> 00:27:39,619
Boy.

397
00:27:47,279 --> 00:27:50,064
Your monkey-ass
shouldn'’t even be flying.

398
00:27:58,682 --> 00:27:59,683
[grunts]

399
00:28:01,815 --> 00:28:04,513
[breathes heavily]

400
00:28:10,215 --> 00:28:11,216
[grunts]

401
00:28:21,530 --> 00:28:22,575
[sniffles]

402
00:28:37,242 --> 00:28:41,550
[sniffles, breathes heavily]

403
00:29:08,012 --> 00:29:10,405
[officer on PA]
Flight ops commence,
flight ops commence.

404
00:29:10,579 --> 00:29:13,713
Be aware of all prop wash.
All hands on deck.

405
00:29:13,887 --> 00:29:15,106
[sailor] Don'’t need all hands.

406
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,108
[sailor 2] Doing it!

407
00:29:17,282 --> 00:29:19,153
[officer on PA]
All repair parties,
man your stations.

408
00:29:19,327 --> 00:29:21,460
All repair parties,
man your stations.

409
00:29:21,634 --> 00:29:23,767
[crew shouting, chattering]

410
00:29:27,727 --> 00:29:29,903
[engine roaring]

411
00:29:38,390 --> 00:29:40,435
-[Dick] That'’s Hudner.
-[Carol] Mm-hmm.

412
00:29:47,007 --> 00:29:50,315
[officer on radio] You'’re on
a good approach, Hudner.
Just keep an eye on the LSO.

413
00:30:12,293 --> 00:30:13,207
[grunts]

414
00:30:15,427 --> 00:30:16,820
All right, pretty boy.

415
00:30:20,780 --> 00:30:22,826
[cable wobbles]

416
00:30:33,227 --> 00:30:35,882
All right, three-to-one
he misses it.

417
00:30:36,056 --> 00:30:37,101
I'’ll take the action.

418
00:30:37,841 --> 00:30:39,320
Bonus if he splashes?

419
00:30:39,494 --> 00:30:41,540
[chuckles]
Christ, Bo,
we don'’t want him dead.

420
00:30:42,323 --> 00:30:45,065
[landing gear whirs]

421
00:30:57,904 --> 00:31:00,559
Looks like they wanna see
Jackie Robinson steal home.

422
00:31:09,785 --> 00:31:12,179
[officer on radio]
Ensign Brown, you'’re too high.

423
00:31:13,224 --> 00:31:14,616
That'’s a shit approach.

424
00:31:30,284 --> 00:31:32,199
Come on. Get your nose up.

425
00:31:34,810 --> 00:31:36,725
Why isn'’t he listening
to the LSO?

426
00:31:40,947 --> 00:31:42,470
[grunts]

427
00:31:45,169 --> 00:31:46,910
[engine roars]

428
00:31:49,347 --> 00:31:50,826
[all shout]Geez!

429
00:31:51,001 --> 00:31:52,089
[all shout]

430
00:31:54,134 --> 00:31:56,049
[grunts]

431
00:31:56,223 --> 00:31:58,660
[officer on radio]
That was pretty close, Brown.
Do you wanna call it?

432
00:31:58,834 --> 00:32:00,445
I'’m coming back around.

433
00:32:03,448 --> 00:32:05,537
[officer on PA]
Crash crew, stand by.

434
00:32:10,846 --> 00:32:13,023
[breathes heavily]

435
00:32:15,721 --> 00:32:17,810
[officer on radio]
You'’re still too high, Brown.

436
00:32:26,384 --> 00:32:27,820
You'’re not in the groove.

437
00:32:28,429 --> 00:32:29,430
I'’ll get there.

438
00:32:44,445 --> 00:32:45,490
[grunts]

439
00:32:52,236 --> 00:32:54,629
[engine roars]

440
00:33:04,422 --> 00:33:07,033
[cable wobbles]

441
00:33:07,773 --> 00:33:08,817
[exhales]

442
00:33:09,731 --> 00:33:10,906
[all cheer]

443
00:33:11,777 --> 00:33:12,865
All right, Jesse.

444
00:33:13,692 --> 00:33:15,041
[sailor] Attaboy!

445
00:33:15,215 --> 00:33:17,391
[officer on PA]
Attention, all hands.

446
00:33:17,565 --> 00:33:19,611
Flight operations
commence in one hour.

447
00:33:19,785 --> 00:33:23,049
FOD walk in 15 mikes.
All available hands on deck.

448
00:33:23,223 --> 00:33:25,356
FOD walk in 15 mikes.

449
00:33:25,530 --> 00:33:28,446
Doesn'’t matter how you did it.
Just matters that
you got down, pal.

450
00:33:29,534 --> 00:33:31,101
[Dick] Fellas,

451
00:33:32,189 --> 00:33:33,538
you all passed
your carrier quals.

452
00:33:33,712 --> 00:33:35,061
[all cheer]

453
00:33:35,235 --> 00:33:36,236
[pilot] That'’s what
I'’m talking about.

454
00:33:36,410 --> 00:33:38,021
Top marks go to...Yeah.

455
00:33:38,195 --> 00:33:40,414
Lieutenant Hudner
with the only
perfect grade.

456
00:33:40,588 --> 00:33:41,676
Oh, bastard.

457
00:33:41,850 --> 00:33:43,722
Which brings us
to Ensign Brown.

458
00:33:43,896 --> 00:33:46,638
D-N-K-U-A!

459
00:33:46,812 --> 00:33:49,336
[all]
Damn near killed us all.

460
00:33:49,510 --> 00:33:52,731
[Dick] Enjoy tonight, boys.
We ship out in the morning.

461
00:33:52,905 --> 00:33:54,950
And now is the time,
if you haven'’t already,

462
00:33:55,125 --> 00:33:56,387
get all your affairs
in order.

463
00:33:57,910 --> 00:33:58,954
All right.

464
00:34:01,740 --> 00:34:03,916
[pilot] What affairs
do you have to get in order,
my friend?

465
00:34:05,309 --> 00:34:06,614
[pilot 2] I'’m headed
to Denver, boys.

466
00:34:07,441 --> 00:34:08,963
That was some landing.

467
00:34:09,139 --> 00:34:11,706
[pilot 3] I'’m never
too drunk to drive.

468
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,577
Just trying to
keep it interesting.

469
00:34:17,016 --> 00:34:18,322
You get your car fixed yet?

470
00:34:25,416 --> 00:34:27,113
You heading to the bar
with the guys?

471
00:34:27,940 --> 00:34:28,983
I don'’t think so.

472
00:34:33,119 --> 00:34:34,077
[clears throat]

473
00:34:34,729 --> 00:34:35,773
Wanna come in?

474
00:34:43,521 --> 00:34:44,957
[engine stops]

475
00:34:50,702 --> 00:34:51,789
Hey, Daisy?

476
00:34:52,356 --> 00:34:53,530
Yes?

477
00:34:53,704 --> 00:34:54,706
[door closes]

478
00:35:01,930 --> 00:35:03,149
What did I tell you?

479
00:35:06,979 --> 00:35:08,023
Yes, ma'’am.

480
00:35:09,155 --> 00:35:10,374
[child] Mommy?

481
00:35:10,548 --> 00:35:11,462
Oh.

482
00:35:11,636 --> 00:35:13,551
Let me get her.Okay.

483
00:35:16,945 --> 00:35:18,904
Nice to see you again.You as well.

484
00:35:25,302 --> 00:35:27,869
[mumbles]

485
00:35:28,043 --> 00:35:29,175
Which one do you like?

486
00:35:31,395 --> 00:35:32,396
The blue one?

487
00:35:33,484 --> 00:35:34,485
The gray one?

488
00:35:37,052 --> 00:35:38,097
The gray one.

489
00:35:40,143 --> 00:35:41,927
You had a good day?Mm-hmm.

490
00:35:42,101 --> 00:35:43,450
Yeah?Uh-huh.

491
00:35:43,624 --> 00:35:44,625
What'’d you do?

492
00:35:46,149 --> 00:35:47,541
You don'’t remember?

493
00:35:47,715 --> 00:35:48,716
Here you are.

494
00:35:50,283 --> 00:35:51,850
Thought Jesse didn'’t drink.

495
00:35:52,024 --> 00:35:53,068
He doesn'’t.

496
00:35:54,592 --> 00:35:55,593
[chuckles]

497
00:35:59,597 --> 00:36:01,076
Your husband'’s
quite the aviator.

498
00:36:01,251 --> 00:36:03,209
Well, he must feel
the same way about you.

499
00:36:03,383 --> 00:36:04,515
Because you
and Carol Mohring

500
00:36:04,689 --> 00:36:06,169
are the only boys
from Fighting 32

501
00:36:06,343 --> 00:36:07,822
that he has ever
invited over.

502
00:36:09,041 --> 00:36:10,912
It'’s good to know the men
you'’re flying with.

503
00:36:11,783 --> 00:36:13,393
See what they'’re fighting for.

504
00:36:14,742 --> 00:36:15,743
I like that.

505
00:36:18,224 --> 00:36:21,271
And what about you, Tom?
What are you fighting for?

506
00:36:21,445 --> 00:36:24,143
God, country
and honor aside.

507
00:36:24,317 --> 00:36:25,710
You know, Mrs. Brown, I'’m...

508
00:36:26,928 --> 00:36:28,191
hoping to find that out.

509
00:36:28,365 --> 00:36:29,757
[Jesse laughs]

510
00:36:29,931 --> 00:36:30,976
Come on.

511
00:36:31,150 --> 00:36:33,718
-Come on.
-[child] Okay.

512
00:36:33,892 --> 00:36:36,677
Don'’t be fooled
by his strong,
silent act, by the way.

513
00:36:36,851 --> 00:36:37,896
He trusts you,

514
00:36:39,158 --> 00:36:41,421
I swear,
he'’s the funniest man
you'’ll ever know.

515
00:36:42,901 --> 00:36:45,556
I can'’t say he'’s shown me
that side yet.Mm-hmm.

516
00:36:45,730 --> 00:36:48,298
Something to
look forward to.
[chuckles]

517
00:36:48,472 --> 00:36:51,214
Well, you'’re about to spend
a lot of time together.

518
00:36:52,171 --> 00:36:53,781
Lot of time
in very small spaces.

519
00:37:01,572 --> 00:37:03,008
May I ask you a favor?

520
00:37:04,139 --> 00:37:05,228
Of course.

521
00:37:07,534 --> 00:37:10,233
Second he steps on that ship
and into that plane,

522
00:37:11,190 --> 00:37:12,974
I can'’t protect him anymore.

523
00:37:13,148 --> 00:37:15,107
So I need you to be there
for my Jesse.

524
00:37:16,413 --> 00:37:17,414
Okay?

525
00:37:20,634 --> 00:37:21,940
Okay.

526
00:37:23,811 --> 00:37:24,943
Okay.

527
00:37:25,117 --> 00:37:26,161
[Jesse] Good?

528
00:37:27,337 --> 00:37:29,121
-[child] Hmm.
-[Jesse] That was good, yeah?

529
00:37:29,295 --> 00:37:30,383
Uh-huh.Mm-hmm.

530
00:37:30,557 --> 00:37:31,776
[Daisy chuckles]

531
00:37:31,950 --> 00:37:33,168
Who is this?

532
00:37:34,300 --> 00:37:36,824
This is Pam.

533
00:37:38,478 --> 00:37:39,653
Hi, Pam.

534
00:37:40,872 --> 00:37:44,745
[mimics airplane]

535
00:37:47,008 --> 00:37:48,880
I don'’t think
she wants to embarrass
you, Lieutenant.

536
00:37:49,054 --> 00:37:50,011
[Daisy chuckles]

537
00:37:50,185 --> 00:37:51,796
It'’s too late. Come on.

538
00:37:53,319 --> 00:37:55,234
She might hold the stick
better than you.Okay.

539
00:37:55,408 --> 00:37:56,670
[chuckles]

540
00:37:56,844 --> 00:37:58,977
Well, I know
it'’s our last night here,

541
00:37:59,151 --> 00:38:02,023
so I'’ll let you all
enjoy it together.
Thank you again for the drink.

542
00:38:02,197 --> 00:38:04,243
You'’re very welcome.I'’ll walk ya out.

543
00:38:25,133 --> 00:38:26,744
Just be careful.

544
00:38:28,093 --> 00:38:30,878
Worst thing
that can happen to me
is a bad sunburn.

545
00:38:31,052 --> 00:38:33,707
You come back as black
as you like,
as long as you come home.

546
00:38:36,710 --> 00:38:38,799
'’Cause you'’re taking me
to The Bahamas
when you get back.

547
00:38:38,973 --> 00:38:40,061
Bahamas?

548
00:38:40,235 --> 00:38:41,628
If I get some shore time,

549
00:38:41,802 --> 00:38:44,675
I'’ll get you one of
those European swimsuits.

550
00:38:45,545 --> 00:38:48,287
One of those
two-piece things.

551
00:39:00,473 --> 00:39:01,474
Tootie...

552
00:39:03,824 --> 00:39:06,174
you know you can always
come back here and wave to me.

553
00:39:08,829 --> 00:39:12,790
I'’m only 5,000 miles
that way.[chuckles]

554
00:39:15,532 --> 00:39:18,099
I'’ll wave back.Mm-hmm.

555
00:39:22,234 --> 00:39:23,714
The only person I ever met

556
00:39:25,585 --> 00:39:26,804
belonged in the sky.

557
00:39:30,895 --> 00:39:33,506
Just remember you belong
down here with us, too, okay?

558
00:39:44,125 --> 00:39:46,301
[sighs]

559
00:39:52,395 --> 00:39:54,527
I'’ll write you
every week.Mm-hmm.

560
00:39:55,746 --> 00:39:57,356
I know you will.

561
00:39:59,053 --> 00:40:00,098
[sighs]

562
00:40:32,565 --> 00:40:34,349
[all panting]

563
00:41:00,854 --> 00:41:02,377
[sailor] Break those
chains down.

564
00:41:24,748 --> 00:41:26,924
[officer on PA]
Secure from General Quarters.
All hands!

565
00:41:27,098 --> 00:41:28,665
Secure from General Quarters.

566
00:41:32,582 --> 00:41:35,672
Maybe you'’d be faster
if we did this in the middle
of the night.

567
00:41:35,846 --> 00:41:37,108
What you don'’t
seem to understand

568
00:41:37,282 --> 00:41:39,240
is that someday soon,
this is gonna be real.

569
00:41:39,414 --> 00:41:41,634
And you have to do
a hell of a lot better
than that!

570
00:41:41,808 --> 00:41:43,767
[all] Yes, sir.

571
00:41:45,203 --> 00:41:46,334
All right.

572
00:41:46,509 --> 00:41:48,249
[sailor] I gotta
run him down to 2-A.

573
00:41:48,423 --> 00:41:50,382
I am getting tired
of getting ready.

574
00:41:50,556 --> 00:41:52,602
Tired of living in this
floating sardine can.

575
00:41:52,776 --> 00:41:54,255
Tired of you
smelling like one.

576
00:41:54,429 --> 00:41:55,692
That'’s what
men smell like.

577
00:41:55,866 --> 00:41:57,650
Something to look forward to
one day, Fritz.

578
00:41:57,824 --> 00:41:59,391
Most excitement
we'’ve seen in days.

579
00:41:59,565 --> 00:42:01,001
[Captain Sisson]
Ensign Brown.

580
00:42:02,655 --> 00:42:04,439
Could I speak to you
for a moment?

581
00:42:04,614 --> 00:42:06,529
Careful what you wish for.

582
00:42:06,703 --> 00:42:08,356
[sailor] I'’ll go ahead
and respot it.

583
00:42:10,576 --> 00:42:11,577
Aye, sir.

584
00:42:12,447 --> 00:42:13,492
Huh.

585
00:42:20,107 --> 00:42:21,108
[camera pops]

586
00:42:25,373 --> 00:42:27,201
Do we have to do this
above deck?

587
00:42:27,375 --> 00:42:29,987
Oh, yeah.
It'’s great having you
right in front of your plane.

588
00:42:30,161 --> 00:42:31,162
Relax.
You look great.

589
00:42:31,858 --> 00:42:33,077
[Tom] What'’s going on?

590
00:42:33,251 --> 00:42:35,166
[Dick] Lifemagazine is here.

591
00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:37,864
I guess the Pentagon wanted
something positive for
the folks back home.

592
00:42:38,038 --> 00:42:41,389
Help '’em swallow the pill
of another potential war.

593
00:42:41,564 --> 00:42:44,001
What better way than,
"Black man makes good?"

594
00:42:44,175 --> 00:42:46,786
He does makes
a nice trophy boy.
You ought to be proud, Skip.

595
00:42:48,309 --> 00:42:50,703
Shut up, Bo.

596
00:42:50,877 --> 00:42:54,272
[journalist] Your commanding
officer called you one of the
best pilots he'’s ever seen,

597
00:42:54,446 --> 00:42:55,795
regardless of color.

598
00:42:55,969 --> 00:42:57,754
[officer on PA]
Flight checks and FOD walks

599
00:42:57,928 --> 00:42:59,843
for fixed-wing
and rotary aircraft
must be documented.

600
00:43:01,845 --> 00:43:04,369
That'’s kind of him to say,
but I can'’t say I'’m special.

601
00:43:04,543 --> 00:43:06,806
Well,
it must be hard, right?

602
00:43:06,980 --> 00:43:08,155
It must be hard
being the only--

603
00:43:08,329 --> 00:43:11,028
A naval aviator? Absolutely.

604
00:43:11,202 --> 00:43:13,770
Landing planes on carriers,
it'’s the--

605
00:43:13,944 --> 00:43:16,599
it'’s the toughest job there is
for anyone wearing wings.

606
00:43:20,603 --> 00:43:22,300
[officer on PA]
Heavy maintenance visit

607
00:43:22,474 --> 00:43:24,215
will be performed
in all aircraft...

608
00:43:24,389 --> 00:43:26,304
Come on, Ensign Brown.
You know what I mean.Jesse'’s fine.

609
00:43:26,478 --> 00:43:28,001
Okay, Jesse.

610
00:43:28,175 --> 00:43:29,960
There'’s a lot of guys
from different backgrounds,

611
00:43:30,134 --> 00:43:31,483
but there'’s only one you.

612
00:43:31,657 --> 00:43:33,267
There'’s only
one you, too, sir.
[chuckles]

613
00:43:34,355 --> 00:43:36,444
Look, I mean no disrespect,

614
00:43:36,619 --> 00:43:39,709
but I don'’t think I'’m gonna say
what you'’re looking
for me to say.

615
00:43:41,275 --> 00:43:42,363
All right.

616
00:43:42,537 --> 00:43:43,669
I worked hard
to fly these planes.

617
00:43:43,843 --> 00:43:45,236
It'’s all I'’ve ever wanted to do.

618
00:43:45,410 --> 00:43:47,151
Harder than I can
put into words.[Dick] Jesse.

619
00:43:47,325 --> 00:43:49,501
Can we get
a few more pictures
of Jesse in his plane?

620
00:43:49,675 --> 00:43:50,894
I gotta get my pilots
back to work.

621
00:43:51,068 --> 00:43:52,722
It'’ll just take
a minute, Lieutenant.

622
00:43:52,896 --> 00:43:54,680
Lieutenant Commander.
Have a nice day.

623
00:43:54,854 --> 00:43:56,073
[sailor]
Watch your back!

624
00:43:57,291 --> 00:43:59,380
Damn, Jesse. You just put
a letter in the mail.

625
00:43:59,554 --> 00:44:01,426
One a week.

626
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:02,993
That'’s what I told her.

627
00:44:03,167 --> 00:44:04,734
[Carol] It'’s no use trying
to slow him down.

628
00:44:04,908 --> 00:44:06,605
[chattering]

629
00:44:06,779 --> 00:44:09,042
Hey, we caught
your little circus act
up on deck.

630
00:44:09,216 --> 00:44:10,522
[chuckling]

631
00:44:10,696 --> 00:44:12,176
Your boy juggle, too?
Or...

632
00:44:12,350 --> 00:44:14,091
[shoes tap]

633
00:44:14,265 --> 00:44:15,353
[laughs]

634
00:44:41,248 --> 00:44:42,162
[scoffs]

635
00:44:42,336 --> 00:44:43,468
[laughs]

636
00:44:44,861 --> 00:44:46,079
Guess not.

637
00:44:48,081 --> 00:44:50,780
[marine scoffs]
Well. Nice.

638
00:44:53,608 --> 00:44:55,698
We should have
stood up to
that asshole.

639
00:44:57,047 --> 00:44:58,483
[Jesse] I'’m good, Tom.

640
00:45:06,273 --> 00:45:09,015
Look, I'’m just saying
we shouldn'’t be letting
him run his mouth like that.

641
00:45:37,043 --> 00:45:38,044
[Carol sighs]

642
00:45:44,659 --> 00:45:46,923
[Dick] Now, I know
that you'’re all sick
of doing busywork,

643
00:45:47,097 --> 00:45:50,187
but, oh, have I
got a chore for
a lucky someone.

644
00:45:50,361 --> 00:45:51,928
Not it.Maintenance has replaced

645
00:45:52,102 --> 00:45:53,538
a gyro on one of the Corsairs,

646
00:45:53,712 --> 00:45:55,453
I need a volunteer to
make sure all is working.

647
00:45:55,627 --> 00:45:57,368
It'’s just a quick
up and down.I thought you said "lucky."

648
00:45:57,542 --> 00:45:59,065
It sounds like
a hoot.

649
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:00,632
Why don'’t we
give it to Fritz?

650
00:46:01,459 --> 00:46:02,895
He could use the landing.

651
00:46:03,069 --> 00:46:05,071
[all chuckling]I'’ll do it.

652
00:46:05,811 --> 00:46:06,812
[Dick] All right.

653
00:46:08,031 --> 00:46:09,119
Actually,

654
00:46:09,293 --> 00:46:10,468
if you don'’t mind,
Lieutenant,

655
00:46:11,991 --> 00:46:13,123
Lavery'’s right for once.

656
00:46:13,297 --> 00:46:14,080
'’Course I'’m right.

657
00:46:14,254 --> 00:46:15,778
I could use the trap.

658
00:46:16,648 --> 00:46:17,867
All yours.

659
00:46:18,041 --> 00:46:19,216
Heil Herr Mohring!

660
00:46:19,390 --> 00:46:21,087
[Dick] Mohring it is.[Marty] All right.

661
00:46:21,261 --> 00:46:23,655
All right, now as for
the rest of you,

662
00:46:23,829 --> 00:46:25,352
command has
ordered an audit

663
00:46:25,526 --> 00:46:28,355
on serial numbers
on parts across
all of the planes.

664
00:46:28,529 --> 00:46:30,662
So while Mohring is
up there enjoying
the sightseeing,

665
00:46:30,836 --> 00:46:34,144
the rest of you can
validate all of
the serial numbers

666
00:46:34,318 --> 00:46:36,537
on every single one of
these maintenance orders.

667
00:46:36,711 --> 00:46:39,149
[all groaning]Thank you, Matthew.

668
00:46:39,323 --> 00:46:40,803
Yeah.[Bo] Uh, sir?

669
00:46:40,977 --> 00:46:42,369
That'’ll take all day.

670
00:46:42,543 --> 00:46:44,067
Only if you work quick.

671
00:47:03,695 --> 00:47:04,870
[flight officer]
Ensign Mohring,

672
00:47:05,044 --> 00:47:06,350
you are clear
to test the gyro.

673
00:47:29,112 --> 00:47:30,678
2-17 to tower.

674
00:47:30,853 --> 00:47:32,332
Gyro seems to be
in working order.

675
00:47:32,506 --> 00:47:33,943
[flight officer]
Copy that.
Return to carrier.

676
00:47:49,088 --> 00:47:51,090
Ensign Mohring,
your approach is shallow.

677
00:47:52,178 --> 00:47:53,266
I'’m correcting.

678
00:47:55,355 --> 00:47:56,704
Manufacture number?

679
00:47:59,664 --> 00:48:02,667
"P-5-5-1-8-4."

680
00:48:07,759 --> 00:48:08,891
What is it?

681
00:48:17,769 --> 00:48:18,770
[breathing heavily]

682
00:48:19,814 --> 00:48:20,990
[Jesse] Not gonna
make the deck.

683
00:48:21,164 --> 00:48:22,252
[Tom] He'’ll make it.

684
00:48:22,426 --> 00:48:23,818
Just gotta slowly
pour on the power.

685
00:48:23,993 --> 00:48:25,342
On this approach?

686
00:48:28,475 --> 00:48:29,824
Better to wave off.

687
00:48:30,521 --> 00:48:31,914
Try again.

688
00:48:32,088 --> 00:48:34,568
[flight officer on PA]
Crash crew, stand by.

689
00:48:34,742 --> 00:48:35,961
Crash crew, stand by.

690
00:48:36,135 --> 00:48:37,310
[crew 3] Man your station.

691
00:48:40,487 --> 00:48:42,533
Out of the way.
Coming in.

692
00:48:43,186 --> 00:48:44,187
[inhales sharply]

693
00:48:47,277 --> 00:48:49,540
[flight officer on radio]
You'’re still low, Mohring.

694
00:48:53,848 --> 00:48:55,938
[crew chattering]

695
00:48:58,157 --> 00:48:59,376
Go around, pal.

696
00:49:00,899 --> 00:49:02,248
Ease it on, Mohring.

697
00:49:07,079 --> 00:49:09,168
[flight officer]
Ensign Mohring,
give me some altitude.

698
00:49:10,735 --> 00:49:12,215
[grunts] No, no, no, no, no!

699
00:49:13,433 --> 00:49:14,608
[crashes]

700
00:49:14,782 --> 00:49:16,219
[grunts][crew 5] He'’s in the water.

701
00:49:16,393 --> 00:49:18,308
[crew 6] Man overboard![crew 7] Get your vest pack!

702
00:49:18,482 --> 00:49:19,526
[crew 8] We need rescue!

703
00:49:19,700 --> 00:49:21,354
Poured on the power
too damn fast.

704
00:49:21,528 --> 00:49:22,921
[alarm blaring]

705
00:49:23,095 --> 00:49:25,228
[crash crew shouting]

706
00:49:30,102 --> 00:49:31,799
[crew] Let'’s go, let'’s go!

707
00:49:32,757 --> 00:49:33,976
[crew 8] Do we pull him out?

708
00:49:34,150 --> 00:49:35,281
[alarm continues]

709
00:49:56,389 --> 00:49:59,305
Some people are gonna
tell you that this is
what you signed up for.

710
00:50:00,611 --> 00:50:01,612
It'’s not.

711
00:50:03,179 --> 00:50:04,571
Let'’s be real clear.

712
00:50:05,572 --> 00:50:06,965
We lost a friend.

713
00:50:07,139 --> 00:50:08,358
And that is not easy.

714
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:09,924
Now,

715
00:50:10,969 --> 00:50:12,884
the Navy'’s gonna do
what the Navy does.

716
00:50:13,580 --> 00:50:14,494
But, um...

717
00:50:14,668 --> 00:50:16,061
I'’ll write his family.

718
00:50:25,375 --> 00:50:26,985
Send them his things.

719
00:50:42,653 --> 00:50:43,741
[sighs]

720
00:50:48,441 --> 00:50:49,877
The guys are getting together.

721
00:51:08,026 --> 00:51:09,332
Just because you think
you know better

722
00:51:09,506 --> 00:51:11,464
doesn'’t mean you
have to say anything.

723
00:51:13,858 --> 00:51:15,990
What are you talking about?[sniffles]

724
00:51:16,165 --> 00:51:18,167
Carol hadn'’t been
in the water
five seconds

725
00:51:18,341 --> 00:51:20,517
before you were
talking about what
he could'’ve done better.

726
00:51:20,691 --> 00:51:22,475
We all make mistakes.
That could'’ve been me,
that--

727
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,568
Don'’t let that ring
convince you otherwise.

728
00:51:28,742 --> 00:51:30,701
What'’s the one thing
they told us about
the Corsair?

729
00:51:30,875 --> 00:51:32,529
Remind me.
What'’d they tell us
about the Corsair?

730
00:51:32,703 --> 00:51:34,008
You can'’t punch
the throttle.

731
00:51:34,183 --> 00:51:36,141
Mistakes get
us killed, Jesse.

732
00:51:40,014 --> 00:51:41,929
You don'’t die
if you do
what you'’re told.

733
00:51:43,757 --> 00:51:44,845
[Marty] Fellas.

734
00:51:47,065 --> 00:51:48,414
You coming?

735
00:51:59,121 --> 00:52:00,383
To Carol.

736
00:52:37,289 --> 00:52:39,639
[Tom]
We'’re not even at war,
and we'’re losing men.

737
00:52:40,858 --> 00:52:42,120
Good men.

738
00:52:45,341 --> 00:52:46,516
It'’s just a
tough pill to swallow

739
00:52:46,690 --> 00:52:48,170
when there'’s
nothing to blame.

740
00:52:54,219 --> 00:52:56,265
The swim test
in flight school...

741
00:53:03,228 --> 00:53:05,230
They made me do it ten times.

742
00:53:11,932 --> 00:53:14,239
Didn'’t believe that
a nigger could swim.

743
00:53:16,633 --> 00:53:18,287
They dumped ice in the water.

744
00:53:21,725 --> 00:53:23,466
Put weights
in my flight suit.

745
00:53:27,165 --> 00:53:28,384
Held me under.

746
00:53:32,997 --> 00:53:35,304
They wouldn'’t have cared
if I died in that pool.

747
00:53:38,481 --> 00:53:39,960
But every time...

748
00:53:42,572 --> 00:53:43,660
I made it out.

749
00:53:54,975 --> 00:53:58,457
Got used to flying
the Bearcat. [chuckles]

750
00:54:00,764 --> 00:54:01,895
See everything.

751
00:54:02,722 --> 00:54:04,071
The deck on approach.

752
00:54:05,551 --> 00:54:07,466
[sniffles] All right
in front of me.

753
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,339
I could land it on
my front yard if I had to.

754
00:54:16,910 --> 00:54:18,085
But the Corsair...

755
00:54:25,005 --> 00:54:26,355
I can'’t see anything.

756
00:54:29,401 --> 00:54:31,011
You have to
rely on the LSO.

757
00:54:32,056 --> 00:54:33,449
[Jesse] Hard to believe
that the LSO

758
00:54:33,623 --> 00:54:35,973
won'’t crash my Black ass
on purpose.

759
00:54:40,673 --> 00:54:41,805
I can'’t tell you
how many times

760
00:54:41,979 --> 00:54:43,720
people have told me
to give up, quit.

761
00:54:44,895 --> 00:54:46,026
Die, even.

762
00:54:48,942 --> 00:54:51,684
That'’s why you can'’t always
do what you'’re told.

763
00:54:55,601 --> 00:54:57,603
If I did, I wouldn'’t be here.

764
00:55:01,999 --> 00:55:03,043
[sighs]

765
00:55:05,872 --> 00:55:08,310
That'’s something
I was trying to teach Mohring.

766
00:55:15,447 --> 00:55:16,448
[sniffles]

767
00:55:42,474 --> 00:55:43,606
[Dick] You guys are tired.

768
00:55:43,780 --> 00:55:45,912
I see it. Hell, I am, too.

769
00:55:46,086 --> 00:55:47,436
Been a rough few weeks.

770
00:55:48,959 --> 00:55:51,222
Fortunately,
we are docking in Cannes

771
00:55:51,396 --> 00:55:52,963
for a little shore leave.

772
00:55:53,137 --> 00:55:54,747
Now,
I don'’t know about you,

773
00:55:54,921 --> 00:55:56,575
but I think
some fresh air would
do all of us some good.

774
00:55:56,749 --> 00:55:59,361
[pilot whistles]Obviously, ship rules
follow you ashore.

775
00:55:59,535 --> 00:56:01,232
Liberty expires at 2300.[chuckles]

776
00:56:01,406 --> 00:56:04,191
You are foreigners
in a foreign city,
and you look the part.

777
00:56:04,366 --> 00:56:06,455
So please, Marty,
please, dear God,

778
00:56:06,629 --> 00:56:08,674
don'’t do anything stupid.Mm-hmm.

779
00:56:08,848 --> 00:56:10,894
Oh, and, uh, no,
I don'’t wanna come with you

780
00:56:11,068 --> 00:56:12,635
and do whatever is it
that you'’re gonna do,

781
00:56:12,809 --> 00:56:13,853
but thank you.[chuckles]

782
00:56:14,027 --> 00:56:15,551
Go away.

783
00:56:15,725 --> 00:56:17,814
[big band music playing]

784
00:56:17,988 --> 00:56:19,511
[chattering]

785
00:56:21,034 --> 00:56:23,907
Don'’t let Cevoli
catch you selling
those to the locals.

786
00:56:24,081 --> 00:56:25,604
Let me tell you something.

787
00:56:25,778 --> 00:56:28,651
I'’ve been in the Navy
since I was 16.

788
00:56:28,825 --> 00:56:31,131
And our line of work
is a dangerous one.

789
00:56:31,305 --> 00:56:32,829
One where tomorrow
is never promised.

790
00:56:33,003 --> 00:56:34,918
Hell, tomorrow'’s barely
a gentleman'’s agreement.

791
00:56:36,136 --> 00:56:38,835
So if there'’s liberty
to be had... [chuckles]

792
00:56:39,009 --> 00:56:40,837
...then liberty
we should take.

793
00:56:42,012 --> 00:56:43,796
At two dollars a pack,
I'’ll take a risk.

794
00:56:46,495 --> 00:56:48,453
Let'’s enjoy ourselves, boys.

795
00:56:48,627 --> 00:56:49,846
Mohring would insist.

796
00:56:50,716 --> 00:56:52,283
When in France.

797
00:56:52,457 --> 00:56:54,416
There he is.Tom.

798
00:57:08,038 --> 00:57:10,257
[sailor 1] Don'’t do anything
I wouldn'’t do, sailor.

799
00:57:20,833 --> 00:57:21,878
[Marty] What
do we have here?

800
00:57:22,052 --> 00:57:23,227
Hello.

801
00:57:23,401 --> 00:57:24,837
[Bo] At the Boulevard
de la Croissant.

802
00:57:25,011 --> 00:57:27,187
Few too many sailors
on this street.

803
00:57:27,361 --> 00:57:29,276
[Bo] Doesn'’t look like
a street with
a whorehouse on it.

804
00:57:29,451 --> 00:57:31,322
[chuckling] No.[Marty] You don'’t have
enough scratch or game

805
00:57:31,496 --> 00:57:33,237
for these fine European women.

806
00:57:33,411 --> 00:57:35,935
Hey, I'’m here to drink,
so just point me
in that direction.

807
00:57:36,109 --> 00:57:38,068
Oh, to the first bar
we find, then.

808
00:57:38,242 --> 00:57:40,200
You guys go ahead.

809
00:57:40,374 --> 00:57:42,159
I gotta find something
for Daisy.

810
00:57:44,117 --> 00:57:45,728
I'’ll catch up.All right.

811
00:57:45,902 --> 00:57:48,426
Hey, don'’t forget
the, uh, lacy bits.

812
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:49,862
Funny.

813
00:57:50,907 --> 00:57:52,386
[biker speaking French]

814
00:57:57,522 --> 00:57:59,350
[beachgoers chattering]

815
00:58:01,526 --> 00:58:03,006
[child speaking French]

816
00:58:27,726 --> 00:58:28,988
What'’s going on?

817
00:58:29,162 --> 00:58:31,121
Are you blind?
It'’s Liz Taylor.

818
00:58:31,295 --> 00:58:32,818
The movie star.
Where the hell have you been?

819
00:58:32,992 --> 00:58:34,167
[laughs] I'’d like that.

820
00:58:34,341 --> 00:58:35,299
Miss Taylor.Mmm.

821
00:58:35,473 --> 00:58:36,605
Would you sign
my postcard?

822
00:58:36,779 --> 00:58:38,781
Oh, I don'’t do
signatures, darling.

823
00:58:38,955 --> 00:58:40,478
But I'’ll
give you a kiss.

824
00:58:40,652 --> 00:58:41,827
[chuckles]

825
00:58:43,350 --> 00:58:44,569
Thank you, Mrs. Taylor.

826
00:58:44,743 --> 00:58:45,788
And who'’s your friend?

827
00:58:46,353 --> 00:58:47,703
He ain'’t with me.

828
00:58:47,877 --> 00:58:50,488
Ensign Jesse Brown, ma'’am.

829
00:58:52,795 --> 00:58:54,144
I'’m a naval aviator.

830
00:58:54,318 --> 00:58:56,363
Oh, they let colored folks
be pilots these days?

831
00:58:57,060 --> 00:58:58,061
It would appear so.

832
00:58:58,235 --> 00:58:59,584
Well, how enlightened.

833
00:58:59,758 --> 00:59:01,020
Liz?

834
00:59:02,500 --> 00:59:04,154
I have to run, dear,

835
00:59:04,328 --> 00:59:06,939
but you and your wingmen
should join us
at the casino later.

836
00:59:07,113 --> 00:59:08,419
I like pilots.

837
00:59:09,115 --> 00:59:10,334
Miss Elizabeth?

838
00:59:12,162 --> 00:59:13,685
I'’m sure
you'’ve noticed, but--

839
00:59:13,859 --> 00:59:15,295
You just wear
something smart,

840
00:59:15,469 --> 00:59:18,298
and you tell them
Elizabeth invited you.

841
00:59:25,262 --> 00:59:26,568
[chuckles]

842
00:59:28,091 --> 00:59:29,832
[chattering in French]

843
00:59:31,007 --> 00:59:32,486
You'’re thinking it.[chuckles]

844
00:59:34,314 --> 00:59:35,489
Ah, look who it is.

845
00:59:36,621 --> 00:59:37,579
Get something nice
for Daisy?

846
00:59:37,753 --> 00:59:39,493
Yeah, got something else, too.

847
00:59:39,668 --> 00:59:42,279
I was invited to
the Casino de Carlo
this evening.

848
00:59:42,453 --> 00:59:43,976
We all were, actually.

849
00:59:45,935 --> 00:59:47,850
By Elizabeth Taylor.[Bo] You'’re shitting me.

850
00:59:48,024 --> 00:59:49,112
Wait, Liz Taylor,
the actress?

851
00:59:49,286 --> 00:59:50,374
How? Where?

852
00:59:50,548 --> 00:59:52,594
How? Met her.
Where? At the beach.

853
00:59:53,551 --> 00:59:54,552
Nice lady, actually.

854
00:59:54,726 --> 00:59:56,423
[laughs]I don'’t believe you.

855
00:59:57,294 --> 00:59:58,512
But I got
some money to blow.

856
00:59:58,687 --> 00:59:59,775
Let'’s see if you'’re lying.

857
00:59:59,949 --> 01:00:01,167
[Bo] Now we'’re talking.

858
01:00:01,341 --> 01:00:02,995
Put up or shut up.

859
01:00:12,396 --> 01:00:13,440
Fellas.

860
01:00:16,269 --> 01:00:17,140
Let'’s get dressed. Whoo!

861
01:00:17,314 --> 01:00:19,055
[Bill] Wow.

862
01:00:27,759 --> 01:00:31,154
Now, I know y'’all are used
to getting turned down,
but I ain'’t.

863
01:00:31,328 --> 01:00:33,460
If we don'’t get in,
doubt this is
the only place in town.

864
01:00:33,635 --> 01:00:35,593
Yeah, but this is the only
place with Liz Taylor.

865
01:00:35,767 --> 01:00:37,116
Allegedly.

866
01:00:37,290 --> 01:00:39,423
[speaking French]

867
01:00:39,597 --> 01:00:40,903
We were invited.

868
01:00:41,904 --> 01:00:44,297
I am certain
you were not.

869
01:00:47,431 --> 01:00:49,433
Elizabeth Taylor.
I believe she--Please, sir,

870
01:00:49,607 --> 01:00:51,653
leave now.Jesse.

871
01:00:53,655 --> 01:00:56,048
It'’s okay.
We'’ll go find somewhere else.

872
01:00:58,007 --> 01:00:59,008
Right.

873
01:00:59,965 --> 01:01:00,923
Okay.

874
01:01:01,575 --> 01:01:03,490
[speaking French]

875
01:01:21,073 --> 01:01:23,032
[security guard speaking French]
[clears throat]

876
01:01:24,947 --> 01:01:25,948
This way.

877
01:01:27,558 --> 01:01:30,430
[jazz music plays]

878
01:01:30,604 --> 01:01:32,519
You sly dog.

879
01:01:33,129 --> 01:01:34,130
Never in doubt.

880
01:01:38,830 --> 01:01:39,831
[speaks French]

881
01:01:41,050 --> 01:01:43,487
Did you see her? This is...Oh, man!

882
01:01:44,662 --> 01:01:46,185
Women here are...

883
01:01:47,491 --> 01:01:49,101
[Bill] I think it'’s time
to make a little money.

884
01:01:49,275 --> 01:01:52,714
Oh, look at this place!
I think we found the party.

885
01:01:55,978 --> 01:01:58,894
-[partygoer] Oh, no!
-[crowd shouts]

886
01:02:02,332 --> 01:02:03,942
Is that...Liz Taylor.

887
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:07,772
That'’s Liz Taylor!Liz Taylor.

888
01:02:07,946 --> 01:02:10,644
That'’s Liz Taylor?
She look nice.

889
01:02:11,471 --> 01:02:12,734
Guess I should introduce you.

890
01:02:13,691 --> 01:02:14,779
[Bo] Yep.

891
01:02:14,953 --> 01:02:16,172
Fellas?[Marty] Mm-hmm?

892
01:02:20,567 --> 01:02:22,308
[Bill] Never met a movie star.
Kinda nervous.

893
01:02:22,482 --> 01:02:24,136
Well, lookie-loo.

894
01:02:24,310 --> 01:02:25,747
The Fighting 32.

895
01:02:26,835 --> 01:02:28,227
You came!

896
01:02:28,837 --> 01:02:29,838
Yes, ma'’am.

897
01:02:32,318 --> 01:02:33,972
Do you gentlemen
all know each other?

898
01:02:34,146 --> 01:02:35,539
Just sharing space
at the moment, ma'’am.

899
01:02:35,713 --> 01:02:38,194
That'’s right.
Until the actual war starts.

900
01:02:38,368 --> 01:02:40,065
And then,
we'’ll be on the ground.

901
01:02:40,239 --> 01:02:42,024
And they'’ll be nowhere
to be found.

902
01:02:42,198 --> 01:02:43,982
[scoffs] You always talk
in nursery rhymes?

903
01:02:44,156 --> 01:02:46,289
Please, take a seat.

904
01:02:46,463 --> 01:02:48,857
I could use some
fresh luck anyway.

905
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:50,641
Yes, ma'’am.

906
01:02:51,294 --> 01:02:52,295
Please.

907
01:02:59,432 --> 01:03:01,434
Okay. Why don'’t you
and I grab a drink

908
01:03:01,608 --> 01:03:04,916
and toast to not being
on a ship with these guys?

909
01:03:05,090 --> 01:03:06,309
Come on.Good idea.

910
01:03:06,483 --> 01:03:07,832
Buy a couple rounds on us.

911
01:03:09,747 --> 01:03:11,053
I'’ll keep your seat warm.

912
01:03:13,707 --> 01:03:15,231
[Elizabeth] Put some here.

913
01:03:15,405 --> 01:03:17,668
Let'’s go, Buddy.
Come on.[Elizabeth] Here. And...

914
01:03:19,235 --> 01:03:20,062
[Jesse] Here.

915

My lucky man.

920
01:03:40,256 --> 01:03:41,823
[Marty] Oh, here we go.

921
01:03:42,824 --> 01:03:44,173
Cheers, ladies.

922
01:03:44,347 --> 01:03:45,827
To beautiful people,
beautiful life.Cheers.

923
01:03:46,001 --> 01:03:48,133
Yes, cheers.New friends,
future ex-wives.

924
01:03:48,307 --> 01:03:50,092
Here we go. Hey![laughs]

925
01:03:50,266 --> 01:03:53,878
[whirring]

926
01:03:54,052 --> 01:03:55,271
Whoo![all cheer]

927
01:03:55,445 --> 01:03:56,663
[Bo] Mm-hmm.

928
01:03:56,838 --> 01:03:58,230
That'’s what we call
a winner.

929
01:03:59,928 --> 01:04:01,320
Come on!

930
01:04:01,494 --> 01:04:03,235
About time
to call it a night, Bubba.

931
01:04:03,409 --> 01:04:04,454
Yes!

932
01:04:05,498 --> 01:04:06,543
Oh, shit.

933
01:04:10,068 --> 01:04:11,330
[speaking French]

934
01:04:11,504 --> 01:04:13,767
[both chuckle]

935
01:04:15,944 --> 01:04:19,425
So, you speak French.

936
01:04:19,599 --> 01:04:21,079
I picked it up
in high school.

937
01:04:22,994 --> 01:04:24,387
Uh, sir. Uh, whiskey,

938
01:04:24,561 --> 01:04:26,737
and then,
whatever my friend'’s having.

939
01:04:29,348 --> 01:04:34,876
[speaking French]

940
01:04:38,357 --> 01:04:39,619
Show off.

941
01:04:40,446 --> 01:04:41,404
That was pretty good.

942
01:04:41,578 --> 01:04:44,494
It'’s good.[both laugh]

943
01:04:46,844 --> 01:04:48,150
Pretty wild.

944
01:04:48,324 --> 01:04:51,283
Rubbing shoulders
with movie stars.

945
01:04:51,457 --> 01:04:52,806
Drinking, gambling.

946
01:04:54,286 --> 01:04:56,201
The Reds are
about to strike,

947
01:04:56,375 --> 01:04:57,899
we'’re partying in France.

948
01:04:58,943 --> 01:04:59,988
[sighs]

949
01:05:01,511 --> 01:05:04,209
I just want to go home
with this having
meant something.

950
01:05:04,383 --> 01:05:05,341
Well...

951
01:05:06,603 --> 01:05:08,910
You just keep it up
with Miss Liz Taylor,

952
01:05:10,172 --> 01:05:11,086
and you just might.

953
01:05:11,260 --> 01:05:12,783
[both laugh]

954
01:05:14,916 --> 01:05:15,960
Thank you.

955
01:05:16,830 --> 01:05:18,310
You forgot the ginger beer.

956
01:05:18,484 --> 01:05:19,921
I saw a place
looked real nice.

957
01:05:20,095 --> 01:05:21,792
I'’ll get a drink from there.

958
01:05:21,966 --> 01:05:23,141
Hey, pal.Let'’s try that.

959
01:05:23,837 --> 01:05:24,882
Let'’s try that.

960
01:05:27,798 --> 01:05:29,452
Change of scenery,
fellas.

961
01:05:29,626 --> 01:05:31,933
As long as this place
has French women,
I'’m happy.

962
01:05:32,107 --> 01:05:33,412
We'’ll be jake on that front.

963
01:05:33,586 --> 01:05:35,240
Right, I lost
all my money anyway.
Come on.

964
01:05:35,414 --> 01:05:36,459
-[Bo] We'’re leaving?
-Sorry.

965
01:05:36,633 --> 01:05:37,851
Excuse me?

966
01:05:38,026 --> 01:05:40,811
Miss Elizabeth,
thank you for having us.

967
01:05:40,985 --> 01:05:42,595
It was very kind of you.

968
01:05:42,769 --> 01:05:44,423
Well, is that it for you boys?

969
01:05:44,597 --> 01:05:46,164
I'’m afraid so.

970
01:05:46,338 --> 01:05:49,037
Hmm. Well,
you be safe out there.

971
01:05:54,346 --> 01:05:55,347
Would you?

972
01:05:56,305 --> 01:05:57,349
[blows]

973
01:05:57,523 --> 01:05:58,568
Thank you.

[Tom] We'’re a little outside
the liberty area.

977
01:06:09,405 --> 01:06:11,755
I won'’t tell if you don'’t,
Lieutenant. Voilà!

978
01:06:11,929 --> 01:06:13,235
[Jesse] Oh!

979
01:06:13,409 --> 01:06:15,541
Voilà, voilà! Look at that.

980
01:06:15,715 --> 01:06:16,978
[Bo] How'’d you find this place?

981
01:06:17,152 --> 01:06:18,327
[clears throat]

982
01:06:18,501 --> 01:06:20,633

983
01:06:20,807 --> 01:06:22,984
Bonjour.Ladies.

984
01:06:23,158 --> 01:06:24,159
[Bill] You behave.

985
01:06:27,031 --> 01:06:29,033
Uh, whiskey, please.

986
01:06:31,905 --> 01:06:32,994
[Bo] Careful.

987
01:06:39,304 --> 01:06:40,871
Hmm. [chuckles]

988
01:06:41,045 --> 01:06:42,220
[Bo] Ladies!

989
01:06:42,394 --> 01:06:44,614
And drinks.Here you go.

990

[exhales]

991
01:06:50,489 --> 01:06:53,710
So you gotta use what ya got.

992
01:06:58,149 --> 01:07:01,239
Being handsome
helped me land Daisy,
but you?

993
01:07:02,414 --> 01:07:03,546
[smacks lips]

994
01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:05,461
You?

995
01:07:05,635 --> 01:07:08,594
We'’re gonna need
a different approach.[chuckles]

996
01:07:08,768 --> 01:07:09,769
How about...

997
01:07:10,814 --> 01:07:14,600
You'’re an American aviator
in France?

998
01:07:15,558 --> 01:07:16,776
That'’s all I got?

999
01:07:16,950 --> 01:07:18,517
Gotta play to
your strengths, Lieutenant.

1000
01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:20,041
Sir.

1001
01:07:23,044 --> 01:07:24,045
You'’re without your wings.

1002
01:07:24,219 --> 01:07:26,351
[laughs] You gotta be
kidding me.

1003
01:07:26,525 --> 01:07:28,049
No, no, Jesse,
I'’m not takin'’ your wings.

1004
01:07:28,223 --> 01:07:29,267
Just borrowing.

1005
01:07:30,616 --> 01:07:34,055
Plus, my CO refused
to pin '’em on me
during graduation,

1006
01:07:34,229 --> 01:07:37,058
so they'’re not
that sentimental.

1007
01:07:40,148 --> 01:07:41,540
Now, at least
you look the part.

1008
01:07:42,237 --> 01:07:43,238
[chuckles]

1009
01:07:47,851 --> 01:07:50,288
What about
a magic trick?Magic trick?

1010
01:07:50,462 --> 01:07:52,377
Yeah.You know magic tricks?

1011
01:07:53,248 --> 01:07:55,337
I-- I know '’em.
I know...

1012
01:07:55,511 --> 01:07:56,555
Yes or no?It'’s a magic trick.

1013
01:07:56,729 --> 01:07:58,253
You know a magic trick?Yeah.

1014
01:08:01,038 --> 01:08:02,213
[both laugh]

1015
01:08:02,387 --> 01:08:04,128
Like I said,
you gotta use what you got.

[coughs]

1021
01:08:16,574 --> 01:08:18,185
Sorry.It'’s okay.
[laughs]

1022
01:08:18,359 --> 01:08:19,404
Just say, "Bonjour."

1023
01:08:19,578 --> 01:08:20,797
Bonjour. Bonjour.

1024
01:08:26,498 --> 01:08:28,283
Bonjour. Bonjour.

1025
01:08:28,457 --> 01:08:29,371
[clears throat]

1026
01:08:29,545 --> 01:08:30,589
I'’d like to, um,

1027
01:08:30,763 --> 01:08:32,851
treat you ladies
to a magic trick.

1028
01:08:33,025 --> 01:08:34,680
It'’s called the, uh,

1029
01:08:34,854 --> 01:08:36,291
Fire Breathing Aviator.

1030
01:08:36,465 --> 01:08:38,336
[both chuckle]

1031
01:08:41,904 --> 01:08:44,255
Oh, la, la.[both laugh]

[Tom chuckles]

1034
01:08:48,781 --> 01:08:50,042
[Marty] You know Frank Sinatra?

1035
01:08:51,219 --> 01:08:54,309
He'’s my third cousin.
[chuckles] Yeah.

1036
01:08:54,483 --> 01:08:56,788
I don'’t sound like him,
but I sure as hell
look like him, right?

1037
01:08:56,962 --> 01:08:58,617
Looks better on you.
You'’re the pilot in command.

1038
01:08:58,791 --> 01:09:01,663
[Bo] Bordeaux?
Baby, I don'’t drink wine. No.

1039
01:09:01,837 --> 01:09:04,232
Forgive my uncultured friend.
He doesn'’t know a damn thing.

1040
01:09:04,884 --> 01:09:06,321
Stick to whiskey.

1041
01:09:22,292 --> 01:09:23,641
Oh, they let you in here?

1042
01:09:26,949 --> 01:09:29,822
You know, I had something
going with Liz
before y'’all showed up.

1043
01:09:29,996 --> 01:09:31,346
[chuckles]

1044
01:09:32,998 --> 01:09:34,261
I think she'’s married.

1045
01:09:35,698 --> 01:09:37,178
Something funny, sideshow?

1046
01:09:37,351 --> 01:09:39,136
Excuse me,
just give me one second.

1047
01:09:39,310 --> 01:09:41,529
You'’re the one
that brought the circus.

1048
01:09:42,705 --> 01:09:44,315
[Tom] Hey.

1049
01:09:44,489 --> 01:09:46,534
What'’s going on?[Jesse] Nothing.

1050
01:09:46,708 --> 01:09:47,797
Everything'’s fine.

1051
01:09:47,971 --> 01:09:49,493
You need your
pansy-ass friend here

1052
01:09:49,667 --> 01:09:51,016
to help you out?Hey.

1053
01:09:51,192 --> 01:09:52,149
All right,
we can cool it.

1054
01:09:52,323 --> 01:09:53,455
We'’ve all been drinking.

1055
01:09:53,629 --> 01:09:55,500
Tom. I'’m good.[Marty] Hey, hey.

1056
01:09:55,674 --> 01:09:57,154
I-- I know.

1057
01:09:57,328 --> 01:09:58,547
Yeah, but you won'’t be
after I'’m done with you.

1058
01:09:58,721 --> 01:09:59,939
[grunts]

1059
01:10:00,113 --> 01:10:02,159
-[Marty] Back up! Tom!
-[Buddy] Come on!

1060
01:10:02,333 --> 01:10:03,900
Come on!Oh, sorry.

1061
01:10:04,074 --> 01:10:05,162
[Bill] Tom!
There'’s someone there.

1062
01:10:05,336 --> 01:10:06,990
[Tom] Come on!
Stop! Stop! Stop!

1063
01:10:07,164 --> 01:10:09,297
[Peters] Come on!
Let go of him! Hey! Hey![whistle blows]

1064
01:10:09,471 --> 01:10:11,037
[Bo] Come on, boys,
we gotta go!Stop! Stop!

1065
01:10:11,212 --> 01:10:13,083
-[Bo] Come on! Let'’s go! Run!
-[Marty] We gotta go. Run!

1066
01:10:13,257 --> 01:10:14,650
[Tom] Ah, shoot, your wings.

1067
01:10:14,824 --> 01:10:16,173
-[Marty] Y'’all lucky!
-[Buddy] Let'’s go!

1068
01:10:16,347 --> 01:10:17,261
Hustle, ladies!

1069
01:10:17,435 --> 01:10:19,698
Oh, um. [laughs]

1070
01:10:19,872 --> 01:10:22,223
Tom, come on!
Tom, that way! That way!

1071
01:10:22,397 --> 01:10:23,876
Oh, God!Go, go, go!

1072
01:10:24,050 --> 01:10:29,055
[siren wailing]

1073
01:10:32,929 --> 01:10:34,409
[Tom] You know
how I do that trick?

1074
01:10:35,714 --> 01:10:36,976
I eat the cigarette.

1075
01:10:38,717 --> 01:10:40,241
You didn'’t have to do that.

1076
01:10:41,242 --> 01:10:42,460
I got the kiss.

1077
01:10:44,419 --> 01:10:45,942
I wish you hadn'’t hit him.

1078
01:10:48,074 --> 01:10:49,772
You would'’ve done
the same for me.

1079
01:10:59,347 --> 01:11:00,826
Not hunting
for a thank you.

1080
01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:02,524
You were hunting
for a fight though.

1081
01:11:02,698 --> 01:11:04,134
Defending my wingman.

1082
01:11:11,010 --> 01:11:12,708
I can fight my own fights.

1083
01:11:14,536 --> 01:11:16,233
Been doing it
for a long time now.

1084
01:11:29,072 --> 01:11:30,116
Jesse Brown.

1085
01:11:30,987 --> 01:11:32,336
Squadron of one.

1086
01:11:39,865 --> 01:11:42,259
Ready room. ASAP.
Something big'’s going down.

1087
01:11:43,434 --> 01:11:44,435
[grunts]

1088
01:11:49,092 --> 01:11:50,223
[sighs]

1089
01:11:51,529 --> 01:11:54,402
[Dick] I hope that you all
had fun last night,

1090
01:11:54,576 --> 01:11:58,754
because the North Koreans
came pouring over
the 38th Parallel.

1091
01:11:58,928 --> 01:12:00,277
They have taken Seoul.

1092
01:12:00,451 --> 01:12:02,279
If they take the rest of
the southern peninsula,

1093
01:12:02,453 --> 01:12:05,413
it'’s on to Japan,
and there go our efforts
to contain communism,

1094
01:12:05,587 --> 01:12:06,675
so says Washington.

1095
01:12:06,849 --> 01:12:08,459
So, what does that
mean for us?

1096
01:12:08,633 --> 01:12:09,591
It means we'’re up.

1097
01:12:09,765 --> 01:12:12,115
We'’re setting sail for Korea.

1098
01:12:12,289 --> 01:12:13,856
Now, I know that
for almost all of you,

1099
01:12:14,030 --> 01:12:16,337
this will be the first time
you'’re seeing combat.

1100
01:12:17,250 --> 01:12:18,774
Your training
is important, yes.

1101
01:12:18,948 --> 01:12:21,429
And you are sure as hell ready
to do what you need to do.

1102
01:12:21,603 --> 01:12:22,995
I made sure of that.

1103
01:12:23,169 --> 01:12:25,389
But the most
important thing is this:

1104
01:12:25,563 --> 01:12:27,173
we bring everyone home.

1105
01:12:28,523 --> 01:12:31,047
We bring everyone home.

1106
01:12:40,883 --> 01:12:44,365
[Dick] Brass is worried
there may be as many as
100,000 Chinese

1107
01:12:44,539 --> 01:12:48,020
already in North Korea,
ready to take up the fight
at a moment'’s notice.

1108
01:12:48,194 --> 01:12:50,675
MacArthur ordered B-29'’s
to take out two bridges

1109
01:12:50,849 --> 01:12:53,025
along the Yalu River,
on the border,

1110
01:12:53,199 --> 01:12:56,159
hoping to slow the Chinese
from sending in
any more troops.

1111
01:12:56,333 --> 01:12:57,334
But they missed.

1112
01:12:57,508 --> 01:12:59,641
So, I will lead
the Fighting 32.

1113
01:12:59,815 --> 01:13:02,470
We will take out
the antiaircraft
in Sinuiju City.

1114
01:13:02,644 --> 01:13:04,776
Tarsiers, you will fly support
for the Panthers

1115
01:13:04,950 --> 01:13:07,605
until it is safe for them
to come in and bomb
those bridges.

1116
01:13:07,779 --> 01:13:09,651
This is just a friendly
reminder, gentlemen.

1117
01:13:09,825 --> 01:13:12,393
Don'’t shoot or bomb anything
on the Chinese side
of the river,

1118
01:13:12,567 --> 01:13:14,438
unless you wanna be
personally responsible

1119
01:13:14,612 --> 01:13:16,440
for starting another
world war.

1120
01:13:16,614 --> 01:13:18,877
We'’re flying directly
into gunfire.

1121
01:13:19,051 --> 01:13:20,226
I need everyone sharp.

1122
01:13:20,879 --> 01:13:21,880
Be smart.

1123
01:13:22,620 --> 01:13:23,795
Be ready.

1124
01:13:23,969 --> 01:13:25,014
[all] Yes, sir.

1125
01:13:28,147 --> 01:13:33,239
[engines roaring]

1126
01:13:43,206 --> 01:13:45,556
[Dick]
201 to 205. You there?

1127
01:13:45,730 --> 01:13:47,210
[Tom on radio]
Go ahead, 201.

1128
01:13:47,384 --> 01:13:49,168
I seem to be having some trouble
with my landing gear.

1129
01:13:49,342 --> 01:13:50,387
Can you confirm?

1130
01:13:51,693 --> 01:13:53,521
[Tom] Your gear is in transit.

1131
01:13:54,130 --> 01:13:56,045
Uh, 201 to rug.

1132
01:13:56,219 --> 01:13:58,700
We got a mechanical issue,
and can'’t lead us
to the mission area.

1133
01:13:58,874 --> 01:14:00,702
Passing the lead to 205.

1134
01:14:00,876 --> 01:14:03,574
[Leyte CIC on radio]
Roger, 205. You are cleared
for the downwind.

1135
01:14:08,318 --> 01:14:10,102
Stay on the right side
of the river, Tom.

1136
01:14:10,276 --> 01:14:11,756
Yes, sir.

1137
01:14:31,950 --> 01:14:37,390
[engines roaring]

1138
01:14:41,743 --> 01:14:44,528
[breathes heavily]

1139
01:14:53,015 --> 01:14:55,496
[breathes heavily]

1140
01:15:08,421 --> 01:15:11,512
[breathes deeply]

1141
01:15:12,338 --> 01:15:13,949
205 is in hot.

1142
01:15:31,096 --> 01:15:32,097
[artillery zipping]

1143
01:15:38,103 --> 01:15:40,018
[grunts]

1144
01:15:53,466 --> 01:15:54,511
[Tom] 205 to Flight.

1145
01:15:55,991 --> 01:15:57,645
Commencing flak
suppression now.

1146
01:15:59,995 --> 01:16:00,996
-Ah!
-[gasps]

1147
01:16:01,170 --> 01:16:02,475
[jets roaring]

1148
01:16:02,650 --> 01:16:03,564
It'’s a MiG!

1149
01:16:06,349 --> 01:16:09,874
Koenig, take Goode and Lavery.
Stay on the AA.

1150
01:16:10,048 --> 01:16:10,788
We'’re on it.

1151
01:16:10,962 --> 01:16:12,268
Jesse, break left.

1152
01:16:12,442 --> 01:16:13,356
Let'’s hose this guy.

1153
01:16:13,530 --> 01:16:14,575
Roger that!

1154
01:16:16,968 --> 01:16:18,230
Happy hunting.

1155
01:16:18,404 --> 01:16:19,580
It'’s Bo time.

1156
01:16:32,375 --> 01:16:33,594
Three good hits.

1157
01:16:33,768 --> 01:16:35,813
Coming around for another
run on the AA.

1158
01:16:44,866 --> 01:16:46,476
See him?[Jesse] Negative.

1159
01:16:47,042 --> 01:16:48,086
I got nothing.

1160
01:16:54,440 --> 01:16:56,791
[engine roaring]

1161
01:16:57,443 --> 01:16:58,749
[machine guns firing]

1162
01:16:58,923 --> 01:17:00,577
Bandit high!
Bandit high!Huh?

1163
01:17:00,751 --> 01:17:01,839
[Jesse] Break!

1164
01:17:15,418 --> 01:17:17,028
Tom! He'’s on me pretty good!

1165
01:17:17,202 --> 01:17:19,422
I'’m gonna bring him to you
through the canyon.

1166
01:17:21,076 --> 01:17:22,599
I say we show him
the lighthouse.

1167
01:17:22,773 --> 01:17:23,774
Meet me in the middle.

1168
01:17:30,651 --> 01:17:34,916
Enemy AA is silenced.
I repeat, enemy AA
is silenced.

1169
01:17:35,090 --> 01:17:37,440
[Panther lead]
Copy that, Flight Leader.
Approaching target now.

1170
01:17:41,923 --> 01:17:43,011
[breathes heavily] Oh!

1171
01:17:48,843 --> 01:17:51,367
[grunts, breathes heavily]

1172
01:17:51,541 --> 01:17:53,064
Come on.

1173
01:18:13,258 --> 01:18:15,565
[Tom] Okay,
I have a visual on you.

1174
01:18:15,739 --> 01:18:17,872
Break right,
up and hard on my call.

1175
01:18:18,046 --> 01:18:19,482
Roger that!

1176
01:18:31,059 --> 01:18:32,277
Ready, set...

1177
01:18:32,451 --> 01:18:33,844
Hit it![groans]

1178
01:18:35,454 --> 01:18:36,499

[shouts, laughs]

1180
01:18:41,939 --> 01:18:43,071
Good hit, Tom!

1181
01:18:43,245 --> 01:18:46,204
Quite fine, Jesse! Quite fine!

1182
01:18:50,861 --> 01:18:53,342
[Panther lead]
This is Panther lead.
Approaching target.

1183
01:19:10,359 --> 01:19:11,490
[explosion]

1184
01:19:15,973 --> 01:19:17,322
Good hit, good hit.

1185
01:19:17,496 --> 01:19:19,542
Rear bridge is down.
Coming back around.

1186
01:19:22,980 --> 01:19:24,808
[Tom] Let'’s bring it home,
Panthers.

1187
01:19:26,897 --> 01:19:27,898
[machine gun cocks]

1188
01:19:34,252 --> 01:19:37,647
[Panther lead] Flight lead,
we'’ve got AA
coming from the Chinese side.

1189
01:19:37,821 --> 01:19:38,996
[Tom] We can'’t touch '’em.

1190
01:19:39,170 --> 01:19:40,781
Time to bug out.

1191
01:19:40,955 --> 01:19:42,130
[Panther lead]
Roger that.

1192
01:19:56,187 --> 01:19:58,059
205, I still have ordnance.

1193
01:19:58,799 --> 01:19:59,974
I can hit the bridge.

1194
01:20:00,148 --> 01:20:02,411
It'’s too much AA, 211.
Stand down.

1195
01:20:06,894 --> 01:20:09,026
Jesse, stand down!
That'’s an order!

1196
01:20:26,391 --> 01:20:28,350
[exhales]

1197
01:20:44,409 --> 01:20:46,498

[grunts]

1201
01:21:29,454 --> 01:21:30,978
That'’s a direct hit!

1202
01:21:31,152 --> 01:21:33,371
That'’s a direct hit!
Bridge is down!

1203
01:21:33,545 --> 01:21:35,069
[Bo] That a boy, Jesse!

1204
01:21:35,243 --> 01:21:36,548
There we go, ace!

1205
01:21:36,722 --> 01:21:38,986
[Tom] Iroquois, this is 205.

1206
01:21:39,160 --> 01:21:40,944
Both bridges have been
destroyed.

1207
01:21:41,118 --> 01:21:42,685
Returning to ship.

1208
01:21:42,859 --> 01:21:45,514
[Leyte CIC on radio]
Copy that, 205.
Good work.

1209
01:21:48,473 --> 01:21:49,953
[sighs]

1210
01:21:58,179 --> 01:22:01,486
[Dick] Seems like I missed
one hell of a ride, huh?

1211
01:22:01,660 --> 01:22:04,533
Intelligence has confirmed
that that rat line
has been crippled. Well done.

1212
01:22:04,707 --> 01:22:05,795
[all cheer]

1213
01:22:05,969 --> 01:22:07,579
Now, we are all
still on standby,

1214
01:22:07,753 --> 01:22:11,540
but everybody go
get yourselves cleaned up
for some chow.

1215
01:22:13,150 --> 01:22:14,978
[Tom] Well...
[clears throat]

1216
01:22:15,152 --> 01:22:17,024
[Marty] Let'’s go, boys.
Let'’s get some food.Good job, Tom.

1217
01:22:20,592 --> 01:22:21,942
Here'’s the mission report.

1218
01:22:22,943 --> 01:22:23,944
Well done, Hudner.

1219
01:22:25,597 --> 01:22:26,598
How you feeling?

1220
01:22:27,773 --> 01:22:28,818
Good.

1221
01:22:31,386 --> 01:22:32,430
Hmm.

1222
01:22:33,127 --> 01:22:34,128
Sit down.

1223
01:22:35,651 --> 01:22:36,652
[clears throat]

1224
01:22:46,923 --> 01:22:47,837
Meh.

1225
01:22:48,011 --> 01:22:49,012
[chuckles]

1226
01:22:49,578 --> 01:22:50,579
That feeling?

1227
01:22:51,710 --> 01:22:53,669
That'’s the mundanity
of a job well done.

1228
01:22:58,152 --> 01:23:01,285
You know how many wars
there have been
in the history of mankind?

1229
01:23:03,374 --> 01:23:04,636
No, course not.

1230
01:23:04,810 --> 01:23:06,943
'’Cause most wars
are forgotten.

1231
01:23:07,117 --> 01:23:08,423
All the men
who fought in '’em,

1232
01:23:08,597 --> 01:23:11,426
and all the medals they won.

1233
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:13,950
Heroes and hardware
fade to the back
of the history books

1234
01:23:14,124 --> 01:23:16,257
because it'’s not about war.

1235
01:23:16,431 --> 01:23:19,434
This war never ends,
there'’s no V Day,
there'’s no finish line.

1236
01:23:20,913 --> 01:23:23,046
The real battle
in all of life

1237
01:23:23,220 --> 01:23:25,048
is being someone
that people can count on.

1238
01:23:27,050 --> 01:23:29,052
And that isn'’t defined
in a single moment.

1239
01:23:29,226 --> 01:23:31,707
You earn that with
a lifetime of showing up.

1240
01:23:33,404 --> 01:23:36,886
These conflicts,
they don'’t define you, Tom.
You don'’t want '’em to.

1241
01:23:37,060 --> 01:23:38,061
Trust me.

1242
01:23:40,281 --> 01:23:42,065
-[lighter flicks]
-Go get something to eat.

1243
01:23:43,501 --> 01:23:44,502
Go on.

1244
01:23:50,813 --> 01:23:51,857
Hey, Tom.

1245
01:23:53,685 --> 01:23:55,035
What'’s the most
important thing?

1246
01:23:56,732 --> 01:23:58,125
Bring '’em home.

1247
01:23:58,647 --> 01:23:59,691
You did.

1248
01:24:41,603 --> 01:24:43,822
[marine] Sir,
that is absolutely true.

1249
01:24:43,996 --> 01:24:47,261
[marine 2] This is wisdom-seven.
Enemy troops estimate
company size and two tanks...

1250
01:24:55,399 --> 01:24:59,229
[marine 3 on radio]
Personnel Tango-Romeo-
5-2-5-3-9-0.

1251
01:25:05,192 --> 01:25:06,758
You know what else
I could use?

1252
01:25:06,932 --> 01:25:08,456
[Peters] Warm blankets?

1253
01:25:10,197 --> 01:25:11,198
Fire?

1254
01:25:12,024 --> 01:25:13,243
The sun, maybe?

1255
01:25:15,027 --> 01:25:16,377
Another shot
with Liz Taylor.

1256
01:25:16,551 --> 01:25:19,249
Oh, Jesus! Buddy,
you gotta stop saying that.

1257
01:25:19,423 --> 01:25:21,208
[scoffs]
You never had a shot with Liz.

1258
01:25:21,382 --> 01:25:23,035
Uh, you weren'’t
paying attention.

1259
01:25:23,819 --> 01:25:24,820
[sighs]

1260
01:25:24,994 --> 01:25:26,300
I would take feeling
in my toes

1261
01:25:26,474 --> 01:25:28,345
rather than a shot
with Liz right now.

1262
01:25:28,519 --> 01:25:29,781
[laughs]

1263
01:25:35,613 --> 01:25:37,224
You think
they'’ll hit us tonight?

1264
01:25:39,356 --> 01:25:40,357
I would.

1265
01:25:42,142 --> 01:25:44,100
You ever got anything nice
to say?

1266
01:25:46,494 --> 01:25:48,887
[flare fires, hisses]

1267
01:26:03,424 --> 01:26:05,121
[bullet buzzes][grunts]

1268
01:26:05,295 --> 01:26:07,123
[Peters] Incoming![Buddy] Shit!

1269
01:26:10,387 --> 01:26:11,693
Corpsman!

1270
01:26:11,867 --> 01:26:13,042
[corpsman]
You'’re doing fine.
I got you.

1271
01:26:13,912 --> 01:26:14,913
[marine] Downrange!

1272
01:26:17,133 --> 01:26:19,004
Move left![marine 2] Fire at will!

1273
01:26:19,179 --> 01:26:20,745
[marine] Move, move, move!

1274
01:26:21,398 --> 01:26:22,573
Incoming!

1275
01:26:33,541 --> 01:26:35,847
[gunshot echoes]

1276
01:26:38,328 --> 01:26:39,329
What'’s going on?

1277
01:26:58,479 --> 01:26:59,784
Looks like
the mission report said

1278
01:26:59,958 --> 01:27:02,265
I ignored my commanding
officer'’s orders.

1279
01:27:06,182 --> 01:27:07,879
Well, you know
how this stuff works.

1280
01:27:08,053 --> 01:27:09,620
I only wrote down
what happened.

1281
01:27:13,711 --> 01:27:15,974
I'’m glad that'’s
what you saw,
Lieutenant.

1282
01:27:20,414 --> 01:27:21,676
It'’s what happened.

1283
01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:30,859
Look, what difference
does it make?
We got the job done.

1284
01:27:37,431 --> 01:27:38,910
Insubordination.

1285
01:27:44,568 --> 01:27:46,657
That'’s what they'’re putting
in my Fitness Report.

1286
01:27:53,882 --> 01:27:55,231
Uh, no, Cevoli'’s gotta
understand--

1287
01:27:55,405 --> 01:27:56,841
It'’s coming from
above Cevoli, Tom.

1288
01:27:57,015 --> 01:27:58,321
Skipper'’s already read it.

1289
01:28:04,545 --> 01:28:05,894
Jesse, I didn'’t
want that to happen.

1290
01:28:06,068 --> 01:28:09,158
What did you want to happen,
Mr. Academy?

1291
01:28:16,383 --> 01:28:17,471
Sorry, pal.

1292
01:28:29,483 --> 01:28:31,876
You really hamstringed me
on this one.
[chuckles]

1293
01:28:35,793 --> 01:28:38,013
I can'’t get promoted
with that on my report.

1294
01:28:47,152 --> 01:28:49,329
You ever think
we'’d see a MiG?

1295
01:28:49,503 --> 01:28:52,027
Hell, I thought
Goode was gonna bail out
all the way back to Brooklyn.

1296
01:28:52,201 --> 01:28:54,551
You'’re the one
who shit his pants
when the MiG swooped in.

1297
01:28:54,725 --> 01:28:57,162
By the way,
you changed your diaper yet?Why don'’t you come check?

1298
01:28:57,337 --> 01:28:59,730
Yeah, we'’re lucky
we made it out alive
the way you two shoot.

1299
01:28:59,904 --> 01:29:00,905
How'’s that for aim?[laughs]

1300
01:29:01,079 --> 01:29:02,342
[knock on door]

1301
01:29:04,648 --> 01:29:05,997
I need your help
with something.

1302
01:29:07,956 --> 01:29:09,436
[officer on PA]
All blue shirts on duty...

1303
01:29:09,610 --> 01:29:11,525
[Jesse, muffled]
Boy, you stole it.

1304
01:29:11,699 --> 01:29:13,657
That'’s a white man'’s uniform.

1305
01:29:13,831 --> 01:29:16,399
[officer on PA]
All blue shirts on duty
report to Main Hangar 3.

1306
01:29:16,573 --> 01:29:18,270
[Jesse] You shouldn'’t be
in that.

1307
01:29:18,445 --> 01:29:19,446
Eh, boy?

1308
01:29:21,317 --> 01:29:22,884
Think I'’ll make it out--

1309
01:29:46,734 --> 01:29:49,127
Every hateful word
anyone'’s ever said to me.

1310
01:29:53,393 --> 01:29:54,394
Wrote it down.

1311
01:29:58,789 --> 01:30:00,051
Repeat it to myself.

1312
01:30:05,317 --> 01:30:06,971
Been doing it
since I was a boy.

1313
01:30:10,192 --> 01:30:11,236
It helps.

1314
01:30:20,463 --> 01:30:21,725
What'’s that?

1315
01:30:21,899 --> 01:30:23,727
Testimonies from the guys.

1316
01:30:23,901 --> 01:30:27,122
Saying how the mission
was complicated,
and you did the right thing.

1317
01:30:28,819 --> 01:30:30,908
It'’ll fix whatever remark
they put in your report.

1318
01:30:39,047 --> 01:30:40,440
There'’s a--
There'’s a way things work

1319
01:30:40,614 --> 01:30:42,093
you'’re not always
gonna understand.

1320
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:48,273
A slap on my wrist,
it'’s-- it'’s not the same
as a slap on yours.

1321
01:30:49,536 --> 01:30:50,972
[sighs]

1322
01:30:52,016 --> 01:30:53,017
This won'’t help.

1323
01:30:59,328 --> 01:31:00,764
I'’m sticking
my neck out for you.

1324
01:31:02,592 --> 01:31:04,202
Sticking your neck out?

1325
01:31:05,203 --> 01:31:06,378
With a piece of paper?

1326
01:31:08,206 --> 01:31:09,469
Tom...

1327
01:31:11,819 --> 01:31:13,429
that paper cost you nothing.

1328
01:31:14,822 --> 01:31:15,823
Nothing!

1329
01:31:16,867 --> 01:31:18,739
You know how tired
I am of people

1330
01:31:18,913 --> 01:31:21,742
trying to help me
while looking down on me?

1331
01:31:25,223 --> 01:31:26,790
I'’m not looking down on you.

1332
01:31:31,229 --> 01:31:32,579
What do you want me to do?

1333
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:41,196
Just be my wingman, pal.

1334
01:31:44,068 --> 01:31:45,069
That'’s it.

1335
01:31:47,245 --> 01:31:50,945
Forget the life saver,
and get in the damn water!

1336
01:31:51,119 --> 01:31:52,468
Please, Tom!

1337
01:32:23,368 --> 01:32:24,761
Ensign Brown?

1338
01:32:26,937 --> 01:32:29,810
We were waiting for you
back in the wardroom,
but you never showed.

1339
01:32:32,595 --> 01:32:33,944
Needed some time alone.

1340
01:32:39,254 --> 01:32:41,212
Bunch of us brothers
across the ship been talking.

1341
01:32:42,779 --> 01:32:44,738
Heard you had some
real good shooting yesterday,

1342
01:32:44,912 --> 01:32:47,044
and we just wanna
let you know we see you.

1343
01:32:51,440 --> 01:32:54,965
[sailor 1]
Yeah, my rack man knows
how to fix it. I'’ll get him.

1344
01:32:55,139 --> 01:32:58,490
[sailor 2] On it. Now get these
back on the cleats, too.

1345
01:33:01,798 --> 01:33:03,626
[sailor 3]
Tab it, mark it off.

1346
01:33:14,071 --> 01:33:16,596
Bunch of us chipped in
back in Cannes.

1347
01:33:25,430 --> 01:33:26,867
What'’s your name, sailor?

1348
01:33:27,694 --> 01:33:28,651
Fambrough.

1349
01:33:29,478 --> 01:33:32,046
Archie Fambrough, sir.

1350
01:33:34,309 --> 01:33:35,658
Jesse.

1351
01:33:49,933 --> 01:33:51,108
Archie.

1352
01:33:55,330 --> 01:33:56,853
Tell the brothers
I appreciate it.

1353
01:34:06,558 --> 01:34:10,606
[helicopter whirring]

1354
01:34:13,522 --> 01:34:16,481
[sailor] Roger that!
Let'’s mount it to the deck!
We should be good.

1355
01:34:16,656 --> 01:34:18,135
[corpsman]
All right, let'’s go.

1356
01:34:19,354 --> 01:34:21,095
[corpsman 2]
That'’s it, easy. Easy!

1357
01:34:21,269 --> 01:34:22,792
Be gentle now.
All right, let'’s go,
let'’s go, come on!

1358
01:34:22,966 --> 01:34:24,968
-We got you.
-[corpsman 3] He'’s packaged.

1359
01:34:25,142 --> 01:34:26,317
Gonna be okay.

1360
01:34:26,491 --> 01:34:28,580
Move! Doc'’s
waiting downstairs.

1361
01:34:30,452 --> 01:34:31,496
We got you, bud.

1362
01:34:34,891 --> 01:34:37,546
[sailor 1] Aye, aye, sir,
they'’re up and running.

1363
01:34:37,720 --> 01:34:40,070
[sailor 2] Hey, double time it
back to your station.

1364
01:34:40,810 --> 01:34:42,159
[pilot] Mississippi Brown?

1365
01:34:43,291 --> 01:34:44,901
Charlie Ward.

1366
01:34:45,075 --> 01:34:46,381
We went to
flight school together.

1367
01:34:46,555 --> 01:34:48,513
Alabama Ward?The very one.

1368
01:34:49,689 --> 01:34:51,734
You flying eggbeaters now?

1369
01:34:51,908 --> 01:34:53,867
The Navy must'’ve heard
I was looking for something
stupid and dangerous.

1370
01:34:54,041 --> 01:34:56,565
Besides, I wouldn'’t
feel right sharing
the fixed-wing skies

1371
01:34:56,739 --> 01:34:58,132
with a Southern legend.

1372
01:34:59,307 --> 01:35:00,438
Always knew you'’d make it,

1373
01:35:00,612 --> 01:35:02,527
but it is damn good
to see you, Jesse.

1374
01:35:02,702 --> 01:35:05,530
Although, I wish it were
under better circumstances.

1375
01:35:10,535 --> 01:35:11,536
Good to see you, pal.

1376
01:35:13,408 --> 01:35:15,105
Take care of yourself,
Mississippi.

1377
01:35:19,849 --> 01:35:20,850
'’Bama!

1378
01:35:23,287 --> 01:35:24,288
I married her.

1379
01:35:25,202 --> 01:35:26,203
[claps]

1380
01:35:30,120 --> 01:35:31,731
Oh, we home, baby.

1381
01:35:33,645 --> 01:35:35,125
You wanna get down?[grunts]

1382
01:35:35,299 --> 01:35:36,344
Okay.

1383
01:35:41,741 --> 01:35:42,742
[sighs]

1384
01:35:44,700 --> 01:35:45,745
Jesse.

1385
01:35:55,450 --> 01:35:57,800
[Jesse]
My dear, sweet angel,

1386
01:35:57,974 --> 01:35:59,541
I hope this letter
reaches you in time,

1387
01:35:59,715 --> 01:36:01,456
because I wanted
to be the first

1388
01:36:01,630 --> 01:36:04,024
to wish you
a very happy birthday.

1389
01:36:04,198 --> 01:36:06,504
I know it'’s hard to plan
a party from across the world,

1390
01:36:06,678 --> 01:36:10,030
but I thought of something fun
we might be
able to do together.

1391
01:36:10,204 --> 01:36:11,466
Grab Pam.

1392
01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:12,815
Got something for her, too.

1393
01:36:12,989 --> 01:36:13,990
[chuckles]

1394
01:36:18,212 --> 01:36:19,648
"Oh, it'’s dark
and it'’s cramped

1395
01:36:19,822 --> 01:36:21,911
in this spot we'’ve all been.

1396
01:36:22,085 --> 01:36:25,959
It'’s a place for a chick,
but not a mean, old hen."

1397
01:36:48,677 --> 01:36:51,593
"It'’s dark and it'’s cramped,
in this spot we'’ve all been."

1398
01:37:09,045 --> 01:37:12,309
Daddy got us a gift.Oh.
[mumbles]

1399
01:37:12,483 --> 01:37:13,528
Yeah.

1400
01:37:15,269 --> 01:37:16,270
[gasps]

1401
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:19,186
Miss Pam, look.

1402
01:37:19,360 --> 01:37:20,404
[gasps]

1403
01:37:32,329 --> 01:37:36,464
[Jesse] Darling,
hope you found a little box
in Pam'’s closet.

1404
01:37:38,031 --> 01:37:39,728
I'’m going to close now.

1405
01:37:39,902 --> 01:37:41,686
I'’ll write to you
as soon I can.

1406
01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:43,993
Your devoted husband.

1407
01:37:45,473 --> 01:37:48,693
Lovingly and completely yours.

1408
01:37:50,347 --> 01:37:51,479
I'’ll love you forever.

1409
01:37:52,828 --> 01:37:53,873
Jesse.

1410
01:38:05,188 --> 01:38:08,148
Just talked to some of
those injured soldiers
that are arriving.

1411
01:38:09,801 --> 01:38:10,846
[scoffs]

1412
01:38:13,631 --> 01:38:15,503
They'’re from
the 1st Marine Division.

1413
01:38:15,677 --> 01:38:18,114
[Marty] Same ones
who hitched a ride with us
from Quonset.

1414
01:38:19,899 --> 01:38:21,552
They'’re pinned down
at Hagaru Base.

1415
01:38:23,250 --> 01:38:25,687
They'’re saying that
it'’s an unspeakable hell.

1416
01:38:27,907 --> 01:38:29,125
For every one marine,

1417
01:38:29,299 --> 01:38:31,736
there are six Chinese
hiding in the woods.

1418
01:38:31,911 --> 01:38:33,913
Gets below minus 30 at night.

1419
01:38:37,307 --> 01:38:39,614
Those boys are holding on
by their fingernails.

1420
01:38:42,312 --> 01:38:44,836
Some air support would be
mighty welcome. Hmm?

1421
01:38:46,926 --> 01:38:49,754
Punch a hole in that wall.
Take away the Chinese
numerical advantage.

1422
01:38:49,929 --> 01:38:52,496
Give our guys a chance
to get back up on their feet.

1423
01:38:57,849 --> 01:38:59,677
This is a dangerous mission.

1424
01:39:01,462 --> 01:39:03,768
It is dangerous
in a different way
than Sinuiju, okay?

1425
01:39:03,943 --> 01:39:05,770
This is not about
bridges and rat lines.

1426
01:39:05,945 --> 01:39:09,035
This is about thousands
of Chinese soldiers
hiding in the woods

1427
01:39:09,209 --> 01:39:11,994
and shooting at you
from 20 feet below.

1428
01:39:14,040 --> 01:39:15,737
This is extremely
hazardous duty.

1429
01:39:15,911 --> 01:39:17,304
I am not gonna sugarcoat it.

1430
01:39:18,044 --> 01:39:19,871
Men need help,

1431
01:39:20,046 --> 01:39:22,004
and they need what
only we can give '’em.

1432
01:39:23,005 --> 01:39:24,485
So, I'’m gonna take you there.

1433
01:39:25,225 --> 01:39:26,617
We'’re gonna give '’em hell.

1434
01:39:26,791 --> 01:39:28,619
We'’re gonna get
those marines back.

1435
01:39:28,793 --> 01:39:30,491
[pilot] Yes, sir.
Let'’s get outta here.

1436
01:39:30,665 --> 01:39:32,580
[plane roaring][marine] Two o'’clock!
Comin'’ at ya!

1437
01:39:32,754 --> 01:39:34,408
[marine 1] I can'’t see it.
[marine 2] I got him!

1438
01:39:34,582 --> 01:39:36,149
I got him!

1439
01:39:43,069 --> 01:39:44,374
[artillery approaching]

1440
01:39:44,548 --> 01:39:45,593
[grunts]

1441
01:39:46,898 --> 01:39:47,856
[groans]

1442
01:39:48,030 --> 01:39:49,162
[groans]

1443
01:39:49,901 --> 01:39:51,251
Buddy, hey!

1444
01:39:53,340 --> 01:39:54,471
You'’re good, you'’re good.

1445
01:39:54,645 --> 01:39:56,125
Come on, come on.
You'’re good. Go!

1446
01:39:56,299 --> 01:39:57,431
You'’re good. Go!

1447
01:40:00,303 --> 01:40:01,261
[screams]

1448
01:40:02,044 --> 01:40:04,699
[soldiers shouting]

1449
01:40:07,093 --> 01:40:09,399
[groans]

1450
01:40:09,573 --> 01:40:10,879
[marine] Right side!
Two o'’clock!

1451
01:40:11,662 --> 01:40:12,663
[marine 2] Bring it out!

1452
01:40:15,057 --> 01:40:16,493
You know any good prayers?

1453
01:40:16,667 --> 01:40:18,452
Come on, we'’ve seen
worse than this!

1454
01:40:18,626 --> 01:40:21,411
If you want a prayer,
"Dear God, send us
some angels."

1455
01:40:36,035 --> 01:40:38,037
[marine 1] There!
The tree line! Light '’em up!

1456
01:40:42,519 --> 01:40:44,869
Fire '’em up![marine 2] Yeah,
get '’em, boys!

1457
01:40:59,536 --> 01:41:00,798
[marines] Yeah!

1458
01:41:13,550 --> 01:41:15,291
[marine 3] Move! Move! Move!Come on!

1459
01:41:15,465 --> 01:41:17,337
Can'’t let the flyboys
take all the credit!

1460
01:41:17,511 --> 01:41:19,469
[shouting]

1461
01:41:19,643 --> 01:41:21,471
[panting]

1462
01:41:24,909 --> 01:41:27,477
[marine 4] Get down,
get down! Let'’s go!
Let'’s go! Let'’s go!

1463
01:41:27,651 --> 01:41:28,913
[grunting]

1464
01:41:40,751 --> 01:41:42,971
[shouting]

1465
01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:51,022
[marine 5] Yeah!

1466
01:41:52,459 --> 01:41:54,548
You see that?
We got a Negro pilot!

1467
01:41:55,418 --> 01:41:57,464
[Peters] Let'’s go![grunts]

1468
01:42:07,474 --> 01:42:09,345
[Dick on radio]
Looks like we got
the Chinese running,

1469
01:42:09,519 --> 01:42:10,694
but let'’s get
a closer look, boys.

1470
01:42:10,868 --> 01:42:12,305
Rendezvous on me.

1471
01:42:15,960 --> 01:42:18,267
[shouting in Mandarin]

1472
01:42:23,185 --> 01:42:25,622
211, you got a streamer.
I think you'’re losing fuel.

1473
01:42:34,327 --> 01:42:35,284
It'’s not fuel.

1474
01:42:35,458 --> 01:42:36,981
She'’s bleeding oil.

1475
01:42:41,812 --> 01:42:43,249
[engine sputtering]

1476
01:42:48,602 --> 01:42:50,691
She'’s not staying up
in the air much longer.

1477
01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:56,087
Let'’s climb.
Find a place
to put her down.

1478
01:43:09,536 --> 01:43:11,320
[Tom] Take her down
nice and easy, Jesse.

1479
01:43:20,982 --> 01:43:21,983
Jesse, at your 10:00.

1480
01:43:24,377 --> 01:43:25,900
It could work.

1481
01:43:26,770 --> 01:43:27,815
Eyes on it.

1482
01:43:38,260 --> 01:43:40,349
Flight lead,
I'’m following him down.

1483
01:43:40,523 --> 01:43:42,438
Copy that.
We'’ll keep an eye on you.

1484
01:43:42,612 --> 01:43:44,048
Switching radio to
search and rescue.

1485
01:43:50,054 --> 01:43:51,099
Checklist?

1486
01:43:52,056 --> 01:43:53,101
Go ahead.

1487
01:43:54,102 --> 01:43:55,364
[breathing heavily]
Salvo rockets.

1488
01:44:09,422 --> 01:44:10,684
Release drop tanks.

1489
01:44:20,563 --> 01:44:22,478
Canopy back and locked.

1490
01:44:23,914 --> 01:44:26,047
[breathing heavily][wind whistling]

1491
01:44:32,053 --> 01:44:34,098
[grunting]

1492
01:44:34,273 --> 01:44:35,274
Deadstick.

1493
01:44:35,926 --> 01:44:37,101
Deadstick.

1494
01:44:38,233 --> 01:44:39,408
I'’m not gonna make
the clearing.

1495
01:44:39,582 --> 01:44:42,150
[Tom] Yes, you are.
Flaps down.

1496
01:44:42,324 --> 01:44:44,544
[breathing heavily]

1497
01:44:55,990 --> 01:44:57,383
You'’re at 200 feet.

1498
01:45:03,127 --> 01:45:04,520
She won'’t go any slower.

1499
01:45:07,436 --> 01:45:08,916
I can'’t stick with you.

1500
01:45:09,960 --> 01:45:11,658
That'’s the whole
nine yards, Tom.

1501
01:45:31,721 --> 01:45:33,854
[breathing heavily]

1502
01:45:35,203 --> 01:45:36,247
[grunts]

1503
01:45:45,082 --> 01:45:46,867
[breathing heavily]

1504
01:45:50,784 --> 01:45:54,178
Come on! Come on.
[grunts] Come on!

1505
01:46:01,577 --> 01:46:02,665
[shouts]

1506
01:46:07,409 --> 01:46:09,368
211, come in.

1507
01:46:11,370 --> 01:46:12,980
211, come in.

1508
01:46:17,027 --> 01:46:19,552
Tom, once Jesse gets cleared,
you scuttle that plane.

1509
01:46:19,726 --> 01:46:21,858
We can'’t have the Corsair
falling into enemy hands.

1510
01:46:24,121 --> 01:46:25,427
[breathing heavily]

1511
01:46:25,601 --> 01:46:26,776
He'’s not moving.

1512
01:46:28,343 --> 01:46:30,824
Come on, Jesse. Come on.

1513
01:46:35,002 --> 01:46:36,873
Come on, Jesse. Come on.

1514
01:46:48,494 --> 01:46:50,017
[sighs]

1515
01:46:51,235 --> 01:46:52,367
What'’s he doing?

1516
01:46:52,541 --> 01:46:54,195
Why isn'’t he getting out?

1517
01:46:54,369 --> 01:46:57,024
If we can see the smoke,
the Chinese can, too.

1518
01:46:59,069 --> 01:47:00,244
He should'’ve been out by now.

1519
01:47:01,158 --> 01:47:02,638
[Tom] He'’s stuck in there.

1520
01:47:02,812 --> 01:47:05,119
That fire is gonna
eat him alive.

1521
01:47:05,293 --> 01:47:07,382
Come on, Jesse.
Get out of there.

1522
01:47:12,474 --> 01:47:14,345
[breathing heavily]

1523
01:47:24,921 --> 01:47:26,445
I'’m gonna go get Jesse.

1524
01:47:26,619 --> 01:47:28,098
[Bill] Tom, you'’re gonna
get yourself killed.

1525
01:47:28,272 --> 01:47:29,448
[Dick] Don'’t crash
your own plane.

1526
01:47:29,622 --> 01:47:30,971
The hell are you doing,
Hudner?

1527
01:47:31,145 --> 01:47:32,929
Mayday, mayday, mayday.
Iroquois, 201.

1528
01:47:33,103 --> 01:47:36,280
RDF call. I have one,
soon-to-be two pilots down.

1529
01:47:36,455 --> 01:47:37,804
Request immediate assistance.

1530
01:47:37,978 --> 01:47:39,849
[Leyte CIC] 201,
you are in hostile airspace.

1531
01:47:40,023 --> 01:47:42,373
Search and rescue is still
estimating 30 minutes out.

1532
01:47:42,548 --> 01:47:43,462
Return to ship.

1533
01:47:43,636 --> 01:47:46,203
[breathing heavily]

1534
01:47:46,377 --> 01:47:48,945
Tom, search and rescue
is 30 minutes out,

1535
01:47:49,119 --> 01:47:50,730
but help is on the way.

1536
01:47:52,558 --> 01:47:53,559
Be careful down there.

1537
01:47:55,212 --> 01:47:56,344
Yes, sir.

1538
01:47:59,303 --> 01:48:00,783

[panting][gunfire in distance]

1544
01:49:59,554 --> 01:50:02,078
You just ruined
a perfectly good
Corsair, Lieutenant.

1545
01:50:04,472 --> 01:50:06,692
I think that'’s going
in the mission report.

1546
01:50:06,866 --> 01:50:08,694
[chuckles]

1547
01:50:08,868 --> 01:50:10,391
That'’s a negative.
We can'’t send an Angel.

1548
01:50:10,565 --> 01:50:11,871
Our choppers
can'’t fly in the dark.

1549
01:50:12,045 --> 01:50:13,263
It'’s way too dangerous.

1550
01:50:15,483 --> 01:50:16,702
Who'’d they say is down?

1551
01:50:16,876 --> 01:50:18,225
[dispatch officer]
Two Corsairs from VF-32.

1552
01:50:18,399 --> 01:50:20,009
Lieutenant Hudner
and an Ensign Brown.

1556
01:50:28,670 --> 01:50:30,106
Stuck in good, Tom.

1557
01:50:33,196 --> 01:50:34,720
I'’m gonna put out this fire.

1558
01:50:34,894 --> 01:50:36,373
We'’ll get you
out of here, okay?

1559
01:50:51,345 --> 01:50:52,912
[grunting]

1560
01:50:54,609 --> 01:50:55,784
[groans]

1561
01:51:06,752 --> 01:51:08,231
Should we get you
out of here?

1562
01:51:09,711 --> 01:51:10,799
Can we push?

1563
01:51:19,242 --> 01:51:20,287
One.

1564
01:51:21,375 --> 01:51:22,463
Two.

1565
01:51:22,637 --> 01:51:23,812
Three.

1566
01:51:25,858 --> 01:51:27,773
[metal creaking][Jesse grunts]

1567
01:51:29,862 --> 01:51:31,690
[both grunting]

1568
01:51:34,083 --> 01:51:36,172
[panting]

1569
01:51:36,346 --> 01:51:38,522
[breathing heavily]

1570
01:51:49,403 --> 01:51:50,491
Up and hard on my call.

1571
01:52:05,114 --> 01:52:06,463
[Jesse grunts]

1572
01:52:06,637 --> 01:52:08,857
[metal creaking]

1573
01:52:11,338 --> 01:52:14,123
[screaming]

1574
01:52:17,997 --> 01:52:19,694
[breathing heavily]

1575
01:53:03,433 --> 01:53:05,261
[explosions,
gunfire in distance]

1576
01:53:07,829 --> 01:53:09,962
[helicopter approaching]

1577
01:53:23,627 --> 01:53:24,803
Jesse, you hear that?

1578
01:53:26,674 --> 01:53:28,458
[breathing heavily]

1579
01:53:30,634 --> 01:53:31,853
They'’re coming for us.

1580
01:53:52,831 --> 01:53:54,441
[gasping]

1581
01:54:02,449 --> 01:54:04,843
[Tom] He'’s pinned inside.[Charlie] Take the axe.

1582
01:54:05,017 --> 01:54:08,020
We got enemy
not far away.
We gotta work fast!

1583
01:54:13,895 --> 01:54:16,028
[grunting]

1584
01:54:20,989 --> 01:54:22,556
[Jesse] Tom.[grunts]

1585
01:54:23,600 --> 01:54:24,775
Tom!

1586
01:54:32,914 --> 01:54:34,046
Just...

1587
01:54:35,961 --> 01:54:37,484
tell Daisy...

1588
01:54:40,922 --> 01:54:42,881
how much I love her.

1589
01:54:45,492 --> 01:54:46,928
We'’re getting you out of here.

1590
01:54:48,887 --> 01:54:49,888
[exhales]

1591
01:54:50,062 --> 01:54:51,280
[grunting]

1592
01:54:55,850 --> 01:54:56,895
Hudner!

1593
01:54:57,765 --> 01:54:58,897
[muffled] Hudner!

1594
01:55:03,945 --> 01:55:05,338
[shouts] Hudner!

1595
01:55:05,512 --> 01:55:07,644
[panting]

1596
01:55:25,401 --> 01:55:26,925
[sniffles]

1597
01:55:36,717 --> 01:55:38,110
We have to leave now.

1598
01:55:38,284 --> 01:55:39,459
[exhales]

1599
01:55:46,161 --> 01:55:47,771
I'’ll come back for you.

1600
01:56:46,830 --> 01:56:49,007
Tom, keep warm,
all right?

1601
01:56:49,181 --> 01:56:50,269
Coffee down there.

1602
01:56:50,443 --> 01:56:52,097
We'’ll get you
out of here soon.

1603
01:56:58,581 --> 01:57:00,714
[chattering]

1604
01:58:41,989 --> 01:58:43,295
We can'’t get Jesse.

1605
01:58:47,037 --> 01:58:48,561
The area is
totally overrun.

1606
01:58:48,735 --> 01:58:50,519
Search and rescue
is too dangerous.

1607
01:58:52,434 --> 01:58:54,915
Skipper has asked us
to scuttle both planes.

1608
01:58:59,093 --> 01:59:02,052
Hudner,
Doc has grounded you.

1609
01:59:08,146 --> 01:59:09,669
This is
a funeral flight, men.

1610
01:59:12,672 --> 01:59:14,717
This is your only chance
to say goodbye.

1611
01:59:22,856 --> 01:59:24,074
Wheels up in 15.

1612
02:00:20,435 --> 02:00:21,523
Oh, Tom...

1613
02:00:22,698 --> 02:00:24,004
I know.[sniffles]

1614
02:00:54,730 --> 02:00:57,124
Yesterday, we lost
a great aviator.

1615
02:00:58,081 --> 02:00:59,431
Ensign Jesse Brown.

1616
02:01:01,650 --> 02:01:03,652
His loss is felt
all across this ship,

1617
02:01:05,654 --> 02:01:08,135
and will certainly be felt
all across our nation.

1618
02:01:10,920 --> 02:01:12,705
Our country needed
Jesse Brown.

1619
02:01:25,413 --> 02:01:26,980
...Jesse.Don'’t worry about that.

1620
02:01:27,154 --> 02:01:28,547
[giggling, gasps]

1621
02:02:17,900 --> 02:02:19,989
[crying]

1622
02:03:23,705 --> 02:03:24,880
[passenger]
Thank you, ma'’am.

1623
02:03:27,666 --> 02:03:30,712
Mrs. Brown.
I'’m Seaman First Class
Clara Carrol.

1624
02:03:30,886 --> 02:03:32,322
It'’s a pleasure
meeting you.

1625
02:03:33,236 --> 02:03:34,412
Come right this way.

1626
02:04:26,072 --> 02:04:28,161
[chattering]

1627
02:04:30,990 --> 02:04:32,121
Excuse me.

1628
02:04:50,662 --> 02:04:51,750
Daisy.

1629
02:04:58,017 --> 02:04:59,497
These are yours.

1630
02:05:14,947 --> 02:05:17,906
I can imagine
this is a lot.

1631
02:05:18,080 --> 02:05:20,039
I can'’t imagine
how you must--I'’m okay.

1632
02:05:21,997 --> 02:05:23,216
But thank you.

1633
02:05:28,308 --> 02:05:29,527
[sighs]

1634
02:05:31,311 --> 02:05:33,182
I was afraid of
coming here today.

1635
02:05:34,619 --> 02:05:36,446
More afraid than
I'’ve been in my life.

1636
02:05:38,100 --> 02:05:40,755
To face you knowing I--Tom, I appreciate
what you did.

1637
02:05:43,453 --> 02:05:44,585
And I hope you know that.

1638
02:06:01,950 --> 02:06:03,952
I was with Jesse
before he died.

1639
02:06:06,912 --> 02:06:09,697
He was calm
throughout it all.

1640
02:06:11,873 --> 02:06:13,440
I was with him
to the very end.

1641
02:06:17,575 --> 02:06:19,620
The last words
out of his mouth
were for you.

1642
02:06:21,448 --> 02:06:22,754
He said,

1643
02:06:23,755 --> 02:06:25,800
"Just tell Daisy how
much I love her."

1644
02:06:30,239 --> 02:06:31,763
[sighs]

1645
02:06:35,984 --> 02:06:37,812
I'’m sorry
I couldn'’t save him.

1646
02:06:42,034 --> 02:06:43,775
Tom,
that was never your job.

1647
02:06:45,864 --> 02:06:47,996
Never anyone'’s job
to save Jesse.

1648
02:06:51,086 --> 02:06:52,697
I asked you
to be there for him.

1649
02:06:54,786 --> 02:06:56,135
And you were.

1650
02:07:25,904 --> 02:07:28,950
[Jesse] I'’m going to close now
and climb into the rack.

1651
02:07:30,299 --> 02:07:33,389
I honestly dread going to bed,
but I usually dream of you,

1652
02:07:33,563 --> 02:07:37,306
so I'’ll manage to make it
until we'’ll share our bed
together again.

1653
02:07:40,135 --> 02:07:41,267
Darling,

1654
02:07:42,747 --> 02:07:44,183
pray that it'’ll be soon.

1655
02:07:45,488 --> 02:07:46,664
I have to fly tomorrow...

1656
02:07:48,666 --> 02:07:50,493
but so far as that goes,

1657
02:07:50,668 --> 02:07:52,147
my heart hasn'’t been
to the earth

1658
02:07:52,321 --> 02:07:54,454
since the first time
you kissed me.

1659
02:07:56,499 --> 02:07:57,892
And when you love me,

1660
02:07:58,066 --> 02:08:02,331
you send it clear
out of this world.

1661
02:08:09,512 --> 02:08:11,297
I'’ll write you
as soon as I can.

1662
02:08:13,081 --> 02:08:14,082
I love you forever.

1663
02:08:23,091 --> 02:08:24,353
Your devoted husband,

1664
02:08:26,138 --> 02:08:28,618
lovingly
and completely yours.

1665
02:08:31,360 --> 02:08:32,535
Forever.

1666
02:08:35,930 --> 02:08:37,105
Jesse.
