Bandits, 5 o'clock below.

00:00:02,735 --> 00:00:05,227
T.J., Bragg,
make Towers a balaclava.
3
00:00:05,304 --> 00:00:06,294
How about heading back?
4
00:00:08,306 --> 00:00:11,298
Don't threaten
a court martial. Because
I'll take you up on it.
5
00:00:11,376 --> 00:00:13,572
What's gotten into you, boy?
I've been up there everyday
with you.
6
00:00:13,645 --> 00:00:15,237
Up there's right.
Way up there.
7
00:00:15,312 --> 00:00:17,406
You have been withdrawn
from the Kamabatchi action.
8
00:00:17,481 --> 00:00:19,005
Because of a movie actor?
9
00:00:19,082 --> 00:00:21,642
I do the flying,
doubles do the crashing.
10
00:00:22,785 --> 00:00:26,585
Ever seen a biggerjerk
in your whole entire life?
Yeah.
11
00:01:58,948 --> 00:02:01,645
NEWSREEL NARRATOR.’ Rod Towers,
movie idol ofmillions of
Americans,
12
00:02:01,751 --> 00:02:04,083
follows Clark Gable,
James Stewart,
13
00:02:04,153 --> 00:02:07,680
and a host of
other motion picture
stars into combat!
14
00:02:07,757 --> 00:02:09,725
Towers is promoted to
Lieutenant Colonel
15
00:02:09,792 --> 00:02:12,089
and is reassigned
to the South Pacific.
16
00:02:12,527 --> 00:02:16,054
This bright star of Hollywood
is a Marine fighter pilot,
17
00:02:16,398 --> 00:02:20,391
fitting/y, he has starred
in such World War]
air epics as
18
00:02:20,468 --> 00:02:25,463
Do or Die and
Dawn's Early Light
among other screen classics.
19
00:02:25,539 --> 00:02:29,203
With his promotion,
Towers will take command
of a fighting squadron,
20
00:02:29,276 --> 00:02:33,474
and accompanying him
to the South Pacific will be
a single core film crew
21
00:02:33,547 --> 00:02:37,916
to record his first days in
combat against
the Japanese enemy.
22
00:02:38,853 --> 00:02:40,252
Good hunting, Rod.
23
00:02:42,923 --> 00:02:47,485
I'm not turning the Black
Sheep squadron over to a
Hollywood War Bond salesman!
24
00:02:47,662 --> 00:02:51,530
Now, wait a minute, Boyington
Rod Towers happens
to be Lieutenant Colonel,
25
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:54,591
I don't care if Washington
has made him a
Lieutenant General.
26
00:02:54,669 --> 00:02:56,830
Lard, I'm going upstairs
with this one.
27
00:02:58,238 --> 00:03:01,674
I'm as high as you go,
Boyington, which puts
you one star short.
28
00:03:03,810 --> 00:03:08,941
Sir, I lost three pilots and
five planes at Kamabatchi
last week.
29
00:03:09,215 --> 00:03:11,616
You have been withdrawn from
the Kamabatchi action.
30
00:03:11,685 --> 00:03:14,450
Because of a movie star.
Take it up with Washington.
31
00:03:14,521 --> 00:03:18,424
Washington, sir, in their
infinite wisdom,
have lost their marbles.
32
00:03:18,525 --> 00:03:21,654
You're wrong, Greg.
Nothing runs
without public relations,
33
00:03:21,728 --> 00:03:24,527
including war. In case you
haven't heard,
34
00:03:24,764 --> 00:03:27,165
we've been
getting kicked
around out here.
35
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,563
Home front morale
is scraping bottom.
It needs a shot in the arm.
36
00:03:30,637 --> 00:03:34,665
From a drugstore cowboy
like Towers?
Colonel Towers! Boyington.
37
00:03:34,774 --> 00:03:38,972
Can Colonel Tower even fly
a plane?
Of course he can fly.
38
00:03:39,245 --> 00:03:42,646
And out of a lot of fanfare,
they're going to turn him into
an honest to God war hero.
39
00:03:42,715 --> 00:03:47,846
Am I suppose to ground a
combat pilot to find
a plane for this clown to fly.
40
00:03:48,153 --> 00:03:50,588
Colonel Towers has
his own Corsair.
41
00:03:51,590 --> 00:03:52,580
You're kidding.
42
00:03:52,658 --> 00:03:55,355
Nope. The War Department
had one built for him.
43
00:03:56,228 --> 00:03:58,663
You're stuck with it, Greg.
We all are.
44
00:03:58,897 --> 00:04:01,958
Look I want your promise that
you'll cooperate fully with
Towers and Colonel Lard.
45
00:04:02,034 --> 00:04:03,262
Colonel Lard?
46
00:04:03,367 --> 00:04:07,304
He's gonna command the 214
while Towers is flying.
47
00:04:12,276 --> 00:04:16,440
You guys are kidding me.
Boyington. Boyington.
48
00:05:05,930 --> 00:05:09,025
I could swear I seen you
jarheads somewhere before.
49
00:05:10,735 --> 00:05:11,998
Boyington.
Sir.
50
00:05:14,305 --> 00:05:16,535
Boyington, the advance
party is here.
51
00:05:16,607 --> 00:05:19,200
Your orders were to
be in clean khakis
and field scarf.
52
00:05:19,276 --> 00:05:22,610
Colonel, the thing is last
night the nurses had a little
party and
53
00:05:22,679 --> 00:05:24,943
Greg got hooked up with
these twins from Duluth and...
54
00:05:25,015 --> 00:05:30,749
Stow it will you Jim. Sir,
Colonel Towers is gonna
have to take a slight radar.
55
00:05:31,188 --> 00:05:32,678
Pride ofthe Marine club.
56
00:05:32,756 --> 00:05:35,487
Of all the squadrons,
that General Muncey
might've picked.
57
00:05:35,559 --> 00:05:37,720
(CAR HONKING)
58
00:05:37,993 --> 00:05:40,519
Keep those
jeeps off the runway.
59
00:05:41,931 --> 00:05:43,330
ls Rod on that plane?
60
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:44,662
Colonel Towers.
61
00:05:45,301 --> 00:05:50,330
And no, he isn't and I want to
remind you ladies to behave
like officers and gentlemen.
62
00:05:50,606 --> 00:05:53,075
We'll do our best, General.
Well, whatever.
63
00:05:54,410 --> 00:05:56,434
We better get dressed huh?
Right.
64
00:06:00,114 --> 00:06:01,206
Which one's Boyington?
65
00:06:01,282 --> 00:06:03,080
Major.
Sir.
66
00:06:03,384 --> 00:06:06,820
This is Lieutenant Fitz,
Major Boyington.
Major.
67
00:06:07,488 --> 00:06:10,719
This is your speech for the
"Turning Over the Sword" shot.
68
00:06:10,825 --> 00:06:11,815
My what?
69
00:06:11,893 --> 00:06:15,158
Sergeant Chambers will
position you after
Rod does his roll.
70
00:06:16,264 --> 00:06:18,358
Until then
I suggest you study it.
71
00:06:24,339 --> 00:06:25,703
This is a pile of...
Look it is a little...
72
00:06:25,772 --> 00:06:28,741
Talk to General Muncey.
He wrote it.
73
00:06:30,643 --> 00:06:33,203
Actually it's
quite appropriate.
74
00:06:36,348 --> 00:06:39,283
"...the horizon and to engage
and destroy the infamous foe
75
00:06:39,351 --> 00:06:41,512
"in the name of
God and Freedom?"
76
00:06:41,585 --> 00:06:42,916
You're gonna say that.
Nope.
77
00:06:42,987 --> 00:06:44,511
Yes.
You're ready, Sergeant?
78
00:06:44,587 --> 00:06:46,783
I'll set up on a strip,
Lieutenant.
79
00:06:47,657 --> 00:06:48,920
Here he comes!
80
00:06:48,992 --> 00:06:50,652
(WOMEN CHATTERING)
81
00:06:58,967 --> 00:06:59,991
WOMAN: He's here.
82
00:07:00,068 --> 00:07:02,092
Come on let's go
by the runway.
83
00:07:14,415 --> 00:07:16,007
MAN: Did you guys see that?
84
00:07:20,253 --> 00:07:21,845
He's got it, Sergeant.
85
00:07:44,810 --> 00:07:46,834
Lard, here I'm not gonna
do this stupid speech.
86
00:07:46,911 --> 00:07:49,175
Boyington, you gave your word
You might as well
say it, Major.
87
00:07:49,247 --> 00:07:51,944
They'll just dub in someone
else's voice if you don't.
88
00:07:52,016 --> 00:07:54,985
Major! Over here please.
Major.
What?
89
00:07:57,888 --> 00:08:01,153
You could stand right here.
Thank you, Sergeant.
90
00:08:01,758 --> 00:08:03,021
Ready, Colonel?
91
00:08:03,994 --> 00:08:07,521
Roll him, Sergeant!
Okay, Major. Colonel, please.
92
00:08:16,573 --> 00:08:17,937
Any time, Major!
93
00:08:20,409 --> 00:08:22,309
Welcome to the South Pacific.
94
00:08:22,712 --> 00:08:27,946
It's an honor to turn over
the fighting 214
to you, sir,
95
00:08:30,386 --> 00:08:34,448
and to the man we stand
To the man we stand
96
00:08:36,224 --> 00:08:38,124
proud and
ready to follow you.
97
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:41,153
Proud and
ready to follow you.
98
00:08:42,496 --> 00:08:45,625
And...
To engage and destroy!
99
00:08:45,833 --> 00:08:47,301
To engage and destroy
100
00:08:47,368 --> 00:08:52,067
"The infamous foe!
The infamous foe!"
The infamous foe!
101
00:08:52,506 --> 00:08:54,201
In the name of
God and Freedom.
102
00:08:54,274 --> 00:08:56,709
In the name of
God and Freedom.
103
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,915
I'm not much on
flowery speeches, Major,
104
00:09:02,916 --> 00:09:05,317
but I'll fly this outfit
right into hell
105
00:09:05,586 --> 00:09:07,782
ifthat's what it takes to
win this war.
106
00:09:07,855 --> 00:09:10,756
Shake hands!
Shake hands!
107
00:09:10,991 --> 00:09:13,426
I think you ought
to meet the men.
108
00:09:13,594 --> 00:09:16,120
As long as we'll be flying
the hell together.
109
00:09:16,397 --> 00:09:17,761
Cut it, Sergeant.
110
00:09:18,164 --> 00:09:22,362
Look at that guy. Have you
seen a biggerjerk
in your whole entire life?
111
00:09:22,435 --> 00:09:23,425
Yeah.
112
00:09:25,571 --> 00:09:29,439
Lieutenant Larry Casey.
This is Colonel Towers.
113
00:09:29,509 --> 00:09:32,774
Welcome to the garden spot.
East of Nowhere, sir.
114
00:09:33,179 --> 00:09:35,340
I'm not here to be
entertained, son,
115
00:09:35,814 --> 00:09:38,442
I'm here to fight a war.
Well, we gotta
bunch you have to.
116
00:09:38,517 --> 00:09:40,417
Good.
T. J. Wiley.
117
00:09:40,485 --> 00:09:43,352
Proud to know you, son.
Proud to know you too, sir.
118
00:09:43,622 --> 00:09:46,557
just shook the hand that
touched Betty Grable.
Lieutenant Boyle, sir.
119
00:09:46,625 --> 00:09:50,289
Lieutenant Robert Anderson.
Nice to meet you.
Proud to know you, son.
120
00:09:50,362 --> 00:09:54,390
Don French. My kid brother's
a real big fan of yours.
121
00:09:55,634 --> 00:09:58,695
Jerry Bragg, I've seen every
one of your movies, Rod.
122
00:09:58,770 --> 00:10:01,603
lt's Colonel Towers!
I'm sorry, sir.
123
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,537
Never apologize, son,
it's a sure sign of weakness.
124
00:10:07,545 --> 00:10:11,914
That's my executive officer,
Captain Gutterman.
Proud to know you, son.
125
00:10:12,049 --> 00:10:15,074
Yeah, it's been a pleasure,
Daddy.
126
00:10:16,820 --> 00:10:23,191
Lieutenant Nancy Gilmore, and
if you ever need any medicine
or anything, look me up.
127
00:10:23,926 --> 00:10:25,917
l'll remember that,
Lieutenant.
128
00:10:26,762 --> 00:10:27,752
Fitz?
129
00:10:30,833 --> 00:10:34,701
We'd like to invite the ladies
to join the squadron for a
drinkthis evening.
130
00:10:34,770 --> 00:10:35,760
Right.
131
00:10:39,273 --> 00:10:41,037
Until this evening, then.
132
00:10:42,376 --> 00:10:43,968
Where do
bunk, Major?
133
00:10:45,078 --> 00:10:47,308
Lieutenant Casey.
Yes, sir.
134
00:10:47,781 --> 00:10:50,580
Larry, would show the Colonel
to his tent please.
135
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:51,808
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
136
00:10:51,885 --> 00:10:54,115
I'd like to discuss your
orders from
General Muncey, Colonel.
137
00:10:54,187 --> 00:10:55,177
Right.
138
00:10:55,755 --> 00:10:59,020
Lead the way, Jerry.
Larry, right.
139
00:11:01,228 --> 00:11:04,823
Hey, Pappy, this is a
beautiful airplane.
140
00:11:05,966 --> 00:11:09,799
l have never saw a Corsair
that wasn't half beer
cans an' bailing wire.
141
00:11:09,869 --> 00:11:12,634
Yeah, it's a beauty.
Who's that guy?
142
00:11:13,072 --> 00:11:17,270
Towers' mechanic.
His personal mechanic?
143
00:11:17,543 --> 00:11:18,533
Yeah.
144
00:11:21,380 --> 00:11:23,108
Let's stick close to him.
145
00:11:23,681 --> 00:11:26,548
There's gotta be a lot of
goodies in that boxcar.
146
00:11:27,418 --> 00:11:29,614
Find out, will you, Hutch?
All right.
147
00:11:31,656 --> 00:11:33,283
My mother...
She won't believe it!
148
00:11:33,358 --> 00:11:35,588
I shook his hand.
I shook his hand.
149
00:11:37,128 --> 00:11:40,223
Shook his hand.
Did you get that guy?
150
00:11:40,298 --> 00:11:44,633
"Until this evening, then."
You're gonna fly with that
Hollywood hot rock thing.
151
00:11:44,836 --> 00:11:45,826
Yep.
152
00:11:47,272 --> 00:11:50,071
Are you're thinking what
lthink you're thinking.
153
00:11:51,575 --> 00:11:53,270
You forget it, Gutterman.
154
00:11:53,644 --> 00:11:56,613
Maybe I can't play with him,
but I can dream, can't I.
155
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,707
Get me one of Rod's songs
one of his best pictures.
156
00:12:07,456 --> 00:12:08,855
(MEN LAUGHING)
157
00:12:12,428 --> 00:12:15,693
Well, anyway, anyways,
DeMille didn't want me to try,
158
00:12:15,865 --> 00:12:18,129
but I told him to cross
his fingers and roll it.
159
00:12:18,201 --> 00:12:21,136
I couldn't fly upside down
and under that bridge
at the same time,
160
00:12:21,204 --> 00:12:23,571
then he can check me off
the call sheet.
161
00:12:24,340 --> 00:12:28,037
And if you saw
Dawn's Early Light, I guess
you saw how it came out.
162
00:12:28,243 --> 00:12:30,575
Well, from then on C.B. was...
163
00:12:31,813 --> 00:12:34,339
Hey, where's the Major?
Oh, you mean, Pappy?
164
00:12:34,416 --> 00:12:37,647
Probably in his tent,
I guess.
Well, he ought to be here.
165
00:12:39,154 --> 00:12:41,555
I'll get him for you.
No, that's all right,
I'll get him, D.J.
166
00:12:41,623 --> 00:12:43,682
Well, don't anybody go away,
I'll be right back, here?
167
00:12:43,758 --> 00:12:44,748
T.J.
168
00:12:50,031 --> 00:12:51,691
So what's that break,
intermission or what?
169
00:12:51,765 --> 00:12:54,757
Oh, that guy's tremendous
isn't he. Hey, give me a beer,
would you, please?
170
00:12:55,669 --> 00:12:56,932
May I come in?
171
00:12:57,771 --> 00:12:59,295
Come on in, Colonel.
172
00:13:00,139 --> 00:13:04,042
Forget the "Colonel,"
lt's Rod.
Hey, Rod.
173
00:13:06,746 --> 00:13:09,579
Havana. Have 'em rolled
especially for me.
174
00:13:10,116 --> 00:13:13,450
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Wouldn't you sit down?
175
00:13:15,922 --> 00:13:20,689
Major, I realize how awkward
it is for you and your men.
176
00:13:21,261 --> 00:13:24,891
I mean, my moving in here
with a camera crew
making this documentary.
177
00:13:24,964 --> 00:13:28,957
It wasn't my idea. As a matter
of fact, I bucked like a steer
when Muncey sprang it on me
178
00:13:29,034 --> 00:13:31,526
and I told him I said,
you know you should get
a real hero, a real ace
179
00:13:31,603 --> 00:13:34,800
to be the star
ofthis picture.
Someone like you.
180
00:13:34,873 --> 00:13:37,898
But he wouldn't listen.
Well, I'm glad he didn't
181
00:13:37,975 --> 00:13:41,707
because you got a glimpse
of my acting this morning.
182
00:13:42,113 --> 00:13:46,346
Well, anyway, I've got ajob
to do. I'll do it and get
out of your hair.
183
00:13:47,151 --> 00:13:48,811
I want you to know that.
184
00:13:50,787 --> 00:13:55,384
I want you to know something,
Colonel, I mean, Rod.
I appreciate that.
185
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,591
Why don't you come back
to the party with me?
I'll buy you a drink?
186
00:14:00,664 --> 00:14:01,960
Why not?
187
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,528
And when l was accepted
for flight school, I couldn't.
188
00:14:06,602 --> 00:14:09,833
Hey, Rod, how about
finishing that story
you were telling?
189
00:14:09,905 --> 00:14:13,602
What story was that, Larry?
Oh No, I'm Jerry.
This is Larry over here.
190
00:14:13,708 --> 00:14:15,142
It was one about a
Cecil B. DeMille
191
00:14:15,209 --> 00:14:17,473
not wanting you to fly
upside down
underneath the bridge.
192
00:14:17,545 --> 00:14:19,445
Oh, yeah. I remember.
193
00:14:19,681 --> 00:14:21,409
Sure.
How did you come out?
194
00:14:21,615 --> 00:14:23,982
How about a drink, son?
Coming right up.
195
00:14:24,184 --> 00:14:26,175
Let's see now.
Where was I?
196
00:14:26,386 --> 00:14:27,978
Oh, yeah, anyway,
somebody had to do it.
197
00:14:28,054 --> 00:14:31,422
The guy they hired chickened
out at the last minute.
Utah boy.
198
00:14:31,624 --> 00:14:33,854
Yeah.
He enlisted right after that.
199
00:14:34,260 --> 00:14:36,228
Shame. I heard he went down
over Guadalcanal.
200
00:14:36,295 --> 00:14:37,694
Very finest...
201
00:14:37,763 --> 00:14:39,697
Thank you. T.J., ain't it?
Yes.
202
00:14:39,765 --> 00:14:43,702
Hey, Rod, is it true you did
your own stunt flying in
Do Or Die,
203
00:14:43,769 --> 00:14:44,759
Sure did.
204
00:14:44,904 --> 00:14:49,068
l have an agreement with
the studio. I do the flying,
doubles do the crashing.
205
00:14:57,583 --> 00:15:00,848
Yeah, Colonel. Excuse me.
Yes, son.
206
00:15:02,555 --> 00:15:06,014
What does it make you think
that flying an airplane
in the movies
207
00:15:06,092 --> 00:15:10,029
has got anything to do with
flying an airplane in a war
like we got here?
208
00:15:11,397 --> 00:15:15,925
Oh, come on, John, l'm...
At ease, Lieutenant,
it's a reasonable question.
209
00:15:18,870 --> 00:15:22,602
You don't have to worry
about me, Captain.
I pack my own weight.
210
00:15:22,841 --> 00:15:25,208
Always have, always will.
211
00:15:26,177 --> 00:15:27,508
Great. Good.
212
00:15:30,013 --> 00:15:32,277
Oh you'll get your
grids in the morning
from Colonel Towers.
213
00:15:32,349 --> 00:15:35,580
Colonel Towers. Yes.
The point is,
214
00:15:35,753 --> 00:15:38,279
I want you to put your
two best men with him
215
00:15:38,489 --> 00:15:41,288
and at the first sign of
any trouble, I want them
to break him out
216
00:15:41,358 --> 00:15:46,728
and get him back here.
Safe and sound and
that goes for every mission.
217
00:15:46,830 --> 00:15:48,525
(LAUGHING)
218
00:15:49,566 --> 00:15:51,830
He won't get too many
Zekes like that, Colonel.
219
00:15:51,902 --> 00:15:54,894
Oh, don't worry about that.
Just keep him out
ofthe ocean.
220
00:15:54,972 --> 00:15:56,406
Anything you say, sir.
221
00:15:56,874 --> 00:15:59,275
I would just like to get
him out of my outfit.
222
00:15:59,343 --> 00:16:01,744
All right, Colonel,
bring him on.
223
00:16:29,239 --> 00:16:30,831
Let's go hunting.
224
00:16:51,594 --> 00:16:54,461
GREG: Technically, Rod Towers
was in command of the squad.
225
00:16:54,530 --> 00:16:57,022
It was up
to him to call the mission.
226
00:16:57,099 --> 00:17:01,969
Every mission was top secret.
We had no idea where we were
going until we got in the air.
227
00:17:02,205 --> 00:17:05,197
We didn't take long to figure
wh y the orders were secret.
228
00:17:05,274 --> 00:17:08,801
General Muncey probably wanted
to keep the laughter
to a minimum.
229
00:17:09,579 --> 00:17:11,946
All right, Towers,
let's have the grids.
230
00:17:14,951 --> 00:17:17,750
Eighteen south by
170 east.
231
00:17:18,688 --> 00:17:20,348
WILEY: Hey, that's heading
back to the rear area.
232
00:17:20,422 --> 00:17:22,117
That's very good, Wiley.
233
00:17:22,691 --> 00:17:25,786
Take a heading of 105
234
00:17:47,282 --> 00:17:49,182
Sure is quiet up here.
235
00:17:51,753 --> 00:17:52,777
Too quiet.
236
00:17:52,854 --> 00:17:56,551
You don't suppose just
because the war is 50 miles
behind us, Colonel?
237
00:18:04,899 --> 00:18:07,060
Not again. It's 5 o'clock low.
238
00:18:07,133 --> 00:18:08,497
Where'd they come from?
239
00:18:08,567 --> 00:18:11,867
T.J.! Bragg! Take Towers
back to Vella La Cava!
240
00:18:11,937 --> 00:18:13,735
The rest of you guys
form up on me!
241
00:18:13,805 --> 00:18:16,035
Just lead the way, Major!
I'll keep up!
242
00:18:16,108 --> 00:18:19,669
Towers, we're not making
a movie. Those are orders.
Colonel Lard's orders.
243
00:18:19,745 --> 00:18:21,611
All right, Major,
but I'm not heading back.
244
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,206
I'll be waiting upstairs,
just in case I'm needed.
245
00:18:24,283 --> 00:18:26,843
Hey, Greg, we gonna bounce
those Tojos or what?
246
00:18:27,019 --> 00:18:29,818
T. J. Bragg, take him
upstairs and park him!
247
00:18:30,289 --> 00:18:33,122
Jim, let's you and me butt out
and keep Tojo company.
248
00:19:20,939 --> 00:19:23,931
Jim, how are you doing?
You gotta wait for me.
249
00:19:24,076 --> 00:19:26,636
He's up here
and he's close to Rod.
250
00:19:27,812 --> 00:19:32,613
Towers, that Zeke pile
is no fan of yours.
Jim, come back, finish him.
251
00:19:32,683 --> 00:19:34,947
Towers get moving now.
252
00:19:36,253 --> 00:19:37,549
On my way, Greg.
253
00:19:56,272 --> 00:19:57,364
Igot him.
254
00:20:00,509 --> 00:20:05,140
Major, getting down to
allotted fuel minimums.
Maybe I'd better go home.
255
00:20:13,656 --> 00:20:17,149
Okay, let's all go home!
256
00:20:24,032 --> 00:20:26,865
Towers, get back in formation.
257
00:20:27,001 --> 00:20:31,199
Sorry, Major, we need a
victory roll for the montage
sequence in the film.
258
00:20:31,372 --> 00:20:34,205
Let's all do victory rolls.
Not in you life, Jerry.
259
00:20:34,275 --> 00:20:35,970
Bragg! Bragg!
260
00:20:36,177 --> 00:20:40,444
Which one's Towers?
The one on the right.
I think.
261
00:21:04,405 --> 00:21:08,137
Bragg, the next time
you do that, you're grounded.
262
00:21:08,509 --> 00:21:13,106
Now get back in formation.
Don't be hard on
the boy, Major.
263
00:21:14,248 --> 00:21:18,276
He's going to be my wing man
from now on. Is that all right
with you, Barry?
264
00:21:19,053 --> 00:21:22,353
Oh, yeah, sure. Sure, you bet.
265
00:21:30,498 --> 00:21:33,661
Well, how did it go, Colonel?
Managed to get two Zekes.
266
00:21:33,735 --> 00:21:34,827
Two kills?
267
00:21:35,002 --> 00:21:39,235
Well, they tried to jump us.
I went upstairs. Took a couple
ofthe guys with me.
268
00:21:39,941 --> 00:21:42,534
As one Zeke came up after us.
269
00:21:43,610 --> 00:21:45,442
And that was the end of him.
270
00:21:45,746 --> 00:21:48,977
I gotta get out of here before
I puke. If you don't mind.
271
00:21:49,616 --> 00:21:51,311
First, take a look at that.
272
00:21:51,384 --> 00:21:53,876
This man is taking credit
for our kills, Greg.
273
00:21:53,954 --> 00:21:56,286
Hey, wait a minute, Jim!
Wait a minute for what?
274
00:21:56,356 --> 00:21:58,791
ljust want him off
this rock as soon as possible.
275
00:21:58,859 --> 00:21:59,917
You're gonna let him
get away with that.
276
00:21:59,993 --> 00:22:03,429
If a couple of kill flags will
do it, he can take them off my
plane and he can keep them.
277
00:22:03,497 --> 00:22:07,365
ljust want him offthis rock
as soon as possible.
Greg!
278
00:22:09,870 --> 00:22:11,166
Come on.
279
00:22:12,238 --> 00:22:14,535
I need to drink.
Let's get out of here.
280
00:22:14,606 --> 00:22:17,303
Just one more shot, Colonel
and I've got it. Thanks.
281
00:22:17,375 --> 00:22:18,365
Hey, Rod.
282
00:22:19,577 --> 00:22:23,104
Can I talk to you a minute?
Certainly, son,
what's on your mind?
283
00:22:24,015 --> 00:22:27,178
About those two kills today?
Oh, yeah, what about them?
284
00:22:28,286 --> 00:22:31,085
Well, Jim and Pappy got them.
Right!
285
00:22:32,323 --> 00:22:35,554
Well, how come
they're putting their flags
on your plane?
286
00:22:35,727 --> 00:22:37,455
Terry.
No, Jerry.
287
00:22:38,395 --> 00:22:40,295
Let me explain
something to you, son.
288
00:22:41,165 --> 00:22:44,066
I don't like getting credit
for anything I don't deserve.
289
00:22:44,134 --> 00:22:47,297
Oh, why don't you just go and
tell the Colonel that you
didn't claim those two Zekes.
290
00:22:47,371 --> 00:22:49,362
Because there's more
at stake here.
291
00:22:50,574 --> 00:22:52,474
See, son, war's a team effort,
292
00:22:53,076 --> 00:22:56,477
and that team includes
millions of Americans
back in the States,
293
00:22:56,546 --> 00:23:00,744
making guns and planes and
ships. Guns, tanks.
294
00:23:02,151 --> 00:23:05,416
Without them, the war's lost.
They gotta keep working.
Yeah,
295
00:23:05,721 --> 00:23:09,554
buying War Bonds, so boys
like you will have
the tools to do the job.
296
00:23:10,792 --> 00:23:13,817
That means keeping their
morale up. And that's myjob.
297
00:23:14,361 --> 00:23:17,854
To show them, that,
all the work they're
doing is not in vain.
298
00:23:18,265 --> 00:23:19,493
To show them,
299
00:23:21,333 --> 00:23:22,732
what you're doing.
300
00:23:23,302 --> 00:23:24,462
And as much as I hate it,
301
00:23:24,535 --> 00:23:27,835
that's why I had them put
those kill flags on
my plane.
302
00:23:29,373 --> 00:23:31,740
You can understand that,
can't you, son?
303
00:23:36,013 --> 00:23:37,071
Yes, sir.
304
00:23:38,715 --> 00:23:40,375
If you're an actor
you have to have an agent.
305
00:23:40,449 --> 00:23:42,213
You know most agents
always try to convince you
306
00:23:42,284 --> 00:23:43,944
to do things you don't
wanna do.
307
00:23:44,018 --> 00:23:46,885
You know, and this guy kept
telling me to do the film
and I said,
308
00:23:46,955 --> 00:23:50,084
"Look I don't wanna do it."
Finally I called Louis Mayer
and I said, listen,
309
00:23:50,158 --> 00:23:52,923
I will not do the picture,
unless Rita's in it, you know.
310
00:23:52,994 --> 00:23:54,962
Rita? Rita Hayworth.
311
00:23:55,930 --> 00:23:57,398
Is there any other?
312
00:23:57,565 --> 00:23:59,966
It's getting pretty late.
We have another
rough go tomorrow.
313
00:24:00,034 --> 00:24:02,025
We'd better
call it a night, huh?
314
00:24:04,005 --> 00:24:05,473
Good night, ladies.
315
00:24:07,642 --> 00:24:09,633
Goodnight everybody.
You're fighting tomorrow.
316
00:24:09,711 --> 00:24:13,773
I'll walk you to your tent now.
Hey, Braggs' actually coming
to talk to you.
317
00:24:15,984 --> 00:24:17,315
Hey, fellas.
318
00:24:18,719 --> 00:24:21,211
Jerry, you heard the Colonel,
we're gonna have another
really rough go tomorrow.
319
00:24:21,288 --> 00:24:22,687
Maybe you ought to
hit the sack.
320
00:24:22,756 --> 00:24:24,780
Yeah,
what is a "rough go", Jerry?
321
00:24:27,860 --> 00:24:30,227
Can't you guys just
give the man a break?
322
00:24:30,296 --> 00:24:32,230
Put it to you this way, Bragg.
323
00:24:32,498 --> 00:24:33,488
No.
324
00:24:36,601 --> 00:24:41,129
And we'll all have a drink,
to our "rough go"
tomorrow.
325
00:24:47,846 --> 00:24:49,541
Well, that's three down.
326
00:24:50,282 --> 00:24:53,013
Two to go for ace, Rod.
Yeah, I was lucky today.
327
00:24:53,318 --> 00:24:56,481
They came out of the sun,
and I was the
first to see them.
328
00:24:57,188 --> 00:24:59,555
Colonel Towers, let me
buy you a drink.
329
00:25:02,594 --> 00:25:05,894
Our movie star had been flying
with us for almost two weeks.
330
00:25:06,364 --> 00:25:10,460
Except for the first time out.
We hadn't come close
to seeing an enemy plane.
331
00:25:33,258 --> 00:25:35,419
All right, Towers,
let's have the grids.
332
00:25:39,630 --> 00:25:42,964
One thirty six east,
18 south.
333
00:25:50,674 --> 00:25:52,665
GREG: The Black Sheep were
getting bored and restless,
334
00:25:52,743 --> 00:25:55,144
and even Bragg
was beginning to wonder
about his idol.
335
00:25:56,046 --> 00:25:59,743
lf Towers was aware of the way
he was being coddled,
it didn't show.
336
00:25:59,816 --> 00:26:02,581
Every morning it was,
”Good hunting, boys, ”
337
00:26:02,652 --> 00:26:05,952
and every night it was
tall tales for the
nurses and the camera crew.
338
00:26:06,022 --> 00:26:09,686
Like the rest of the guys,
I was getting sick of it.
339
00:26:12,495 --> 00:26:15,692
Greg! Bandits, 9 o'clock!
Looks like a whole squadron.
340
00:26:15,765 --> 00:26:17,255
You're going home, Towers.
341
00:26:17,333 --> 00:26:18,697
What're they doing
way down here?
342
00:26:18,767 --> 00:26:19,995
Bragg, take them home!
343
00:26:20,067 --> 00:26:21,694
Greg,
we're outnumbered as it is!
344
00:26:21,769 --> 00:26:23,737
Why don't you let Towers
find his own way home?
345
00:26:23,804 --> 00:26:25,602
I'm not going anywhere.
I'm sticking.
346
00:26:25,673 --> 00:26:27,401
Towers, I don't have
time for this.
347
00:26:27,474 --> 00:26:29,943
Or any choice.
I'm sticking, Major.
348
00:27:36,109 --> 00:27:39,238
Towers, there's one
coming up on you.
Get out ofthere.
349
00:27:44,617 --> 00:27:47,552
I'm warning you, Towers,
get out of the way
or I'll flame you myself.
350
00:28:11,644 --> 00:28:13,578
Pappy, he's behind you.
Watch out.
351
00:28:52,919 --> 00:28:54,751
Nice shooting, Pappy!
352
00:28:58,191 --> 00:28:59,851
I'm losing power!
353
00:29:01,426 --> 00:29:03,121
I have to take it back
on the deck.
354
00:29:03,695 --> 00:29:06,062
Casey, fly cover for me.
Jim, lead them home.
355
00:29:06,131 --> 00:29:08,759
All right, Greg,
you take it real easy
on your way home.
356
00:29:22,247 --> 00:29:24,544
Okay, Colonel, we got it.
Thank you.
357
00:29:28,119 --> 00:29:30,884
Hey, smokers coming in.
Isn't that Boyington's plane?
358
00:29:30,955 --> 00:29:32,286
(SIREN WAILING)
359
00:29:51,475 --> 00:29:54,001
Boyington, I thought we had
agreed you are not gonna let
360
00:29:54,078 --> 00:29:56,547
Colonel Towers get
that close to the action.
361
00:29:58,748 --> 00:30:01,581
That close
to the action, sir?
362
00:30:05,188 --> 00:30:07,885
Sir, that's all we
have up there, is action.
363
00:30:09,759 --> 00:30:12,228
What was General Muncey
thinking about, when he gave
Towers those grids
364
00:30:12,295 --> 00:30:14,787
that we were stationed
some place in Nebraska?
365
00:30:15,765 --> 00:30:18,257
I have endangered
my entire squadron,
I've been stitched myself,
366
00:30:18,335 --> 00:30:21,566
and you come here bellyaching
about that movie star getting
too close to the action!
367
00:30:21,972 --> 00:30:26,637
He's already an ace, he's got
five kills. And he is yet
to fire a single round.
368
00:30:27,711 --> 00:30:30,840
Now, sir, if you don't want
him too close to the action,
369
00:30:30,914 --> 00:30:34,509
then wind up this circus
and send him back
to Hollywood.
370
00:30:34,784 --> 00:30:36,252
Because I can't, that's why.
Why?
371
00:30:36,319 --> 00:30:39,186
He got to fly
one more mission.
Why?
372
00:30:39,522 --> 00:30:44,323
Because I have a planeload of
correspondents and
photographers coming
373
00:30:44,394 --> 00:30:49,059
down here tomorrow for
interviews and pictures,
that's why.
374
00:30:51,601 --> 00:30:54,036
For interviews and pictures?
375
00:30:54,104 --> 00:30:57,665
Oh, sir, we would have already
won this war if the Japanese
knew about
376
00:30:57,741 --> 00:31:02,235
the interviews and pictures
because they all would have
died from laughing.
377
00:31:02,679 --> 00:31:05,205
Look, you maybe right,
but this is not my show.
378
00:31:05,282 --> 00:31:09,879
General Muncey is running this
show, and he is going
to be here tomorrow.
379
00:31:09,953 --> 00:31:14,254
And I am going to baby-sit this
movie star one more time.
380
00:31:14,324 --> 00:31:19,262
Don't threat to court-martial
me. Because I'll take
you up on it.
381
00:31:26,636 --> 00:31:27,626
Thanks.
382
00:31:32,108 --> 00:31:34,941
When those Zeros broke off,
I wanted to go after them
383
00:31:35,011 --> 00:31:37,105
but we were
just too low on fuel.
384
00:31:37,781 --> 00:31:39,476
Well, maybe next time.
385
00:31:43,553 --> 00:31:46,022
Quick, Jerry,
he's going for a smoke.
386
00:31:47,557 --> 00:31:49,252
How would you like
a bloused lip?
387
00:32:26,062 --> 00:32:27,552
Good night, Sergeant.
388
00:32:31,633 --> 00:32:33,192
Hutch, how about it?
389
00:32:33,268 --> 00:32:36,727
She'll be ready to fly
in the morning,
I promise, Pappy.
390
00:32:36,905 --> 00:32:38,395
You sure?
Positive.
391
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:39,698
Out of my way, Sergeant.
392
00:32:39,775 --> 00:32:40,935
Colonel Towers is not...
393
00:32:44,812 --> 00:32:45,802
What is it, son?
394
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,009
Every movie I ever seen you
in, you always looked so
heroic when you was bleeding?
395
00:32:49,083 --> 00:32:51,313
Well this time it ain't
gonna be no ketchup!
396
00:32:51,386 --> 00:32:52,854
What's your problem,
Lieutenant?
397
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:54,854
I always wanted
to be like you.
398
00:32:54,922 --> 00:32:57,687
Every Saturday afternoon
I was, and it only cost a dime.
399
00:32:58,693 --> 00:33:02,288
And every Saturday afternoon
I was robbed! There ain't no
such thing as a Rod Towers.
400
00:33:02,363 --> 00:33:03,353
Watch it, Larry.
401
00:33:03,431 --> 00:33:04,762
Jerry, dammit!
Jerry.
402
00:33:05,966 --> 00:33:10,096
You and this little show
you've been putting on
almost got Pappy killed today!
403
00:33:10,170 --> 00:33:12,264
He almost gets killed
and they make you an ace.
404
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,537
What's got into you, boy?
I've went up there
every day with you!
405
00:33:15,608 --> 00:33:17,098
Up there's right!
Way up there.
406
00:33:17,176 --> 00:33:19,144
We could keep you from
getting your can shot off!
407
00:33:19,211 --> 00:33:21,202
You wouldn't last 30 seconds
in a real dogfight.
408
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:22,811
Get out of here, Jerry!
409
00:33:24,884 --> 00:33:26,248
You're under arrest,
Lieutenant...
410
00:33:34,025 --> 00:33:36,016
Hey, why are they all
picking on Bragg?
411
00:33:40,131 --> 00:33:42,292
That may be the diversion
we've been waiting for.
412
00:33:42,366 --> 00:33:43,765
Got you, Pappy,
Manny...
413
00:33:43,834 --> 00:33:46,963
Take one.
Hey, Jerry, leave a couple
ofthem for us.
414
00:34:08,025 --> 00:34:11,655
Boyington, what's the
meaning ofthis?
415
00:34:11,728 --> 00:34:13,787
You were next, Howard, baby.
416
00:34:14,931 --> 00:34:18,128
If you don't know now, sir,
you'll never know.
417
00:34:23,806 --> 00:34:25,205
Wait for me.
418
00:34:48,831 --> 00:34:50,992
Rod? Rod?
419
00:34:52,834 --> 00:34:55,303
I don't care what the guy...
420
00:34:55,770 --> 00:34:58,296
Would you shut up, Boyle?
Bragg, did you see me...
421
00:35:01,009 --> 00:35:02,909
What did ya expect, Jerry?
422
00:35:04,412 --> 00:35:05,902
I don't know...
423
00:35:06,214 --> 00:35:07,147
I thought that the...
424
00:35:07,215 --> 00:35:10,742
Jerry, I don't know how you
stay up in the air, you're too
dense to be a fighter pilot.
425
00:35:10,819 --> 00:35:12,810
And I never thought
that was possible.
426
00:35:16,591 --> 00:35:17,717
Nancy?
427
00:35:21,963 --> 00:35:24,955
I give him a shoulder
to cry on and he took it.
428
00:35:25,033 --> 00:35:27,263
"My mother didn't even
love me, Nancy."
429
00:35:27,335 --> 00:35:29,269
Boy, what a creep!
430
00:35:29,337 --> 00:35:32,034
I can't even believe it.
Lets get out of here.
431
00:35:43,184 --> 00:35:44,242
...flying wingman for a frog.
432
00:35:44,319 --> 00:35:46,151
Towers got here was...
433
00:35:46,221 --> 00:35:47,585
Good thing too,
that if he'd ever gotten
434
00:35:47,655 --> 00:35:49,383
near the real war,
he'd probably faint
dead away...
435
00:35:49,455 --> 00:35:52,117
The enemies would be doing
us a favor ifthey
shot him down.
436
00:35:52,191 --> 00:35:55,888
The man is a 14 carat,
genuine, phonyjerk.
437
00:35:56,895 --> 00:35:58,886
He's walking around here,
trying to look like us
438
00:35:58,964 --> 00:36:00,830
and you're walking around
trying to look like him.
439
00:36:08,907 --> 00:36:11,569
This is a private party,
Towers.
440
00:36:12,311 --> 00:36:14,335
This will only take a minute.
441
00:36:16,179 --> 00:36:21,049
ljust want to apologize
to all of you.
442
00:36:23,286 --> 00:36:25,687
Look, I know you think
I'm making a mockery
443
00:36:25,755 --> 00:36:29,089
of what you guys do around
here with all this filming.
444
00:36:32,162 --> 00:36:34,824
I got the first real good look
at myself for the
first time in years,
445
00:36:34,898 --> 00:36:36,832
and I didn't care
much for what I saw.
446
00:36:36,900 --> 00:36:38,492
The line forms to the right.
447
00:36:38,667 --> 00:36:42,103
I know you all think
I'm a phoney, but I'm not.
448
00:36:44,173 --> 00:36:46,403
At least,
I don't feel like one.
449
00:36:46,475 --> 00:36:49,342
It's just that when you've had
a studio publicity mill
fronting for you for years,
450
00:36:49,411 --> 00:36:53,746
well, I guess you kind of lose
yourself, forget what you are.
451
00:36:55,350 --> 00:36:58,786
Look, I know who
the real heroes are.
452
00:36:58,853 --> 00:37:01,254
And I'm gonna make
sure the folks at
home know too.
453
00:37:11,265 --> 00:37:12,664
Boyington!
454
00:37:13,900 --> 00:37:16,096
Major! Major!
455
00:37:16,169 --> 00:37:17,159
What?
456
00:37:17,771 --> 00:37:20,103
Look, you're a fine actor,
and that was a fine speech.
457
00:37:20,173 --> 00:37:21,537
Was that out of one
of your latest movies?
458
00:37:21,607 --> 00:37:23,302
That wasn't out of any movie!
That was out of my gut!
459
00:37:23,376 --> 00:37:24,900
Sure, sure.
460
00:37:26,478 --> 00:37:28,606
Now wait a minute,
just hear me out.
461
00:37:29,681 --> 00:37:32,116
You have snowed
this whole company.
462
00:37:32,183 --> 00:37:33,981
Myself, the entire squadron...
463
00:37:34,052 --> 00:37:35,952
What I said back there,
I meant.
464
00:37:36,154 --> 00:37:37,746
I'm tired of being a puppet.
465
00:37:38,355 --> 00:37:42,188
I'm tired of being told what
to do, what to say, and where
the hell to look.
466
00:37:43,726 --> 00:37:47,162
I'm tired ofthe
disappointment
in people's eyes.
467
00:37:49,198 --> 00:37:52,099
You don't know
what it's like
to be Rod Towers.
468
00:37:52,602 --> 00:37:54,866
I know a lot of guys
who would envy you.
469
00:37:54,937 --> 00:37:56,871
Yeah, well, they're
welcome to it.
470
00:38:00,476 --> 00:38:01,966
I want to fly a mission.
471
00:38:05,214 --> 00:38:06,204
A real one.
472
00:38:11,854 --> 00:38:14,755
I wanna know what I really am.
473
00:38:17,527 --> 00:38:19,255
Sorry, but orders are orders.
474
00:38:20,829 --> 00:38:24,265
And we've gotta fly the grids
you give us in the air.
475
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,792
We don't have any choice,
Towers.
476
00:38:51,425 --> 00:38:53,393
GREG: I had little trouble
sleeping that night.
477
00:38:53,461 --> 00:38:57,898
Igot up early to check up the
500 pounders l'd asked Hutch
to hang on our planes.
478
00:38:58,099 --> 00:39:00,260
Towers had said he wanted to
fly a real mission,
479
00:39:00,333 --> 00:39:02,529
before he went home to his
ticker tape parades.
480
00:39:02,602 --> 00:39:05,537
And I figured he had it coming
in more ways than one.
481
00:39:05,705 --> 00:39:08,231
He wanted to find out what
kind ofman he was.
482
00:39:08,341 --> 00:39:10,435
ljust hoped the answer
wouldn't kill him.
483
00:39:12,644 --> 00:39:14,635
All right, Colonel,
let's have the grids.
484
00:39:15,547 --> 00:39:21,452
Fifty minutes due south,
then west on a heading of
zero seven two.
485
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,044
That's Kamabatchi!
486
00:39:23,221 --> 00:39:25,588
Pappy! We can't take Rod
to Kamabatchi!
487
00:39:25,656 --> 00:39:30,617
No, you got it wrong, Larry.
Orders are orders.
Colonel Towers is taking us.
488
00:39:39,470 --> 00:39:42,269
General Muncey,
I've got a spotter from
San Crepos island.
489
00:39:42,340 --> 00:39:45,503
The 214 is on a heading of
zero seven two.
490
00:39:45,576 --> 00:39:48,443
Zero seven two.
Kamabatchi?
491
00:39:48,513 --> 00:39:50,072
What's going on?
492
00:39:50,148 --> 00:39:51,444
What's Kamabatchi?
493
00:39:51,515 --> 00:39:55,975
It's a hot bed sir,
of bunkers, caves,
ackack and Zero Aces.
494
00:39:57,187 --> 00:40:00,817
That's Rod Towers out there!
Not some expendable farm boy!
495
00:40:01,424 --> 00:40:04,587
Don't you realize
what he means to America?
496
00:40:05,095 --> 00:40:09,328
Don't you know how
demoralizing his death
would be?
497
00:40:10,667 --> 00:40:17,300
However, I don't think the
war effort could lose
either way it goes.
498
00:40:18,775 --> 00:40:23,906
Should of course God forbid,
anything happen to Rod,
499
00:40:24,014 --> 00:40:27,814
I'd say all of America
would rally behind his death.
500
00:40:27,951 --> 00:40:28,941
But, sir?
501
00:40:29,019 --> 00:40:32,751
Oh, don't worry, Colonel,
your work won't have
been wasted.
502
00:40:33,156 --> 00:40:37,115
There's sure to be a
posthumous Congressional Medal
of Honor for Towers.
503
00:40:37,894 --> 00:40:43,128
Why, it might even be awarded
by the President himself!
At Arlington!
504
00:40:46,569 --> 00:40:48,936
Hitting the bunkers
is the easy part, Rod.
505
00:40:49,004 --> 00:40:51,200
It's getting through
the Zeros, that's tough.
506
00:40:51,273 --> 00:40:54,334
There's one guy out there
with 18 kills.
507
00:40:54,844 --> 00:40:56,471
Three ofthem were
Black Sheep.
508
00:40:56,545 --> 00:41:00,140
Yeah, and here they come.
Straight ahead, 12 o'clock.
509
00:41:02,818 --> 00:41:05,753
Okay you guys, we're here
to get through them.
510
00:41:05,821 --> 00:41:08,222
Not to fight them,
not to fight them.
511
00:41:25,908 --> 00:41:27,535
I got one on my tail.
512
00:41:28,377 --> 00:41:31,369
What happened to the old
snap roll, Rod? Get under him!
513
00:41:33,249 --> 00:41:34,739
I'll take care of him, Pappy.
514
00:41:40,990 --> 00:41:43,287
You got him, Pappy.
Thanks, Jerry.
515
00:41:48,730 --> 00:41:50,129
They're pulling up!
516
00:41:55,770 --> 00:41:57,362
We made it!
517
00:41:57,671 --> 00:42:00,572
Not exactly, Rod.
They'll be waiting for us
on the way back.
518
00:42:04,044 --> 00:42:07,069
Theyjust don't like to fly
over their own flak, and I
can't say that I blame them.
519
00:42:07,146 --> 00:42:10,081
We'll have to fly through
pistols, machine guns,
and rice balls
520
00:42:10,149 --> 00:42:12,208
and get close before
we can do ourselves any good!
521
00:42:26,933 --> 00:42:30,460
Okay, Rod, stay back and let
Casey show you how it's done.
522
00:42:30,703 --> 00:42:33,172
You lower your landing gear
to cut your air speed.
523
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:34,399
And bull's-eye.
524
00:42:50,956 --> 00:42:55,450
Got the idea, Rod?
Now give it a try.
525
00:42:58,763 --> 00:42:59,855
Bull's-eye, Rod!
526
00:42:59,931 --> 00:43:01,865
Atta boy, Colonel!
527
00:43:01,933 --> 00:43:03,457
Good hunting, Rod.
528
00:43:03,534 --> 00:43:05,662
I think the man's
ready to fly.
529
00:43:05,736 --> 00:43:08,671
Okay, let's see if we get
these birds home.
530
00:43:28,092 --> 00:43:29,560
Here they come.
531
00:43:35,466 --> 00:43:36,900
All ofthem.
532
00:43:42,506 --> 00:43:45,531
Okay, Rod, hit
the victory roll.
533
00:43:45,608 --> 00:43:50,239
Thanks but I just
don't feel like it.
534
00:43:57,053 --> 00:44:00,750
Come on, roll it,
Rod, baby, roll it, roll it.
535
00:44:38,994 --> 00:44:42,294
Five kills, huh, Rod?
How many today?
536
00:44:42,597 --> 00:44:43,621
None.
537
00:44:43,698 --> 00:44:45,894
How was it out
there today, Rod?
538
00:44:45,967 --> 00:44:47,991
It scared the hell out of me.
539
00:44:49,135 --> 00:44:52,935
And if you'll excuse me,
I gotta go change my drawers.
540
00:44:55,175 --> 00:44:58,611
Rod, wait a minute.
What about all
these reporters?
541
00:44:59,512 --> 00:45:04,848
War's hell, boys.
Even gets to
Rod Towers sometimes.
542
00:45:04,918 --> 00:45:07,387
You'll be happy to know
there's a party in the
officers' club tonight.
543
00:45:07,454 --> 00:45:08,512
Of course, you're all invited.
544
00:45:08,588 --> 00:45:09,578
Thank you General.
545
00:45:09,656 --> 00:45:10,714
Always a pleasure, sir.
546
00:45:10,790 --> 00:45:14,727
No problem at all, they got
three news reels here.
For this?
547
00:45:52,599 --> 00:45:55,000
I'm sure Muncey isn't
gonna like it.
548
00:45:57,270 --> 00:45:58,760
That's tough.
549
00:46:00,240 --> 00:46:01,799
I'm sure not a hero.
550
00:46:01,875 --> 00:46:06,176
Nope. You're not a hero.
551
00:46:07,380 --> 00:46:10,714
But I got a hunch.
Got a hunch
you could have been.
552
00:46:18,224 --> 00:46:20,556
To the War Biz Warrior.
553
00:46:32,338 --> 00:46:33,828
Sorry if we got in the way
of your action, Jim.
554
00:46:33,907 --> 00:46:36,569
Don't ever apologize, Rod.
It's a sure sign of weakness.
555
00:46:39,245 --> 00:46:41,441
Take care, Lieutenant.
Happy landings, Colonel.
556
00:46:42,248 --> 00:46:44,376
Nice knowing you, Bob.
Good luck, Colonel.
557
00:46:44,450 --> 00:46:45,576
Thank you.
558
00:46:45,652 --> 00:46:49,088
Here's my kid brother's
address. I hope you won't
forget to send that picture.
559
00:46:49,155 --> 00:46:52,124
No, I sure won't.
It was nice knowing you, Don.
560
00:46:52,191 --> 00:46:53,386
Thank you, sir.
561
00:46:54,393 --> 00:46:56,452
Tell Betty Grable to save
herself for me, will you?
562
00:46:57,262 --> 00:46:59,458
Yeah, I sure will, T.J.
lsure will.
563
00:46:59,865 --> 00:47:01,093
Adios, Rod,
you're lookin' good.
564
00:47:01,465 --> 00:47:02,455
Thank you.
565
00:47:02,533 --> 00:47:04,900
You too, Larry, take care.
566
00:47:04,969 --> 00:47:06,232
So long, Rod.
567
00:47:06,304 --> 00:47:10,001
So long, Jerry.
I'm real proud that
I've been your wingman.
568
00:47:10,073 --> 00:47:11,507
Likewise, Rod.
569
00:47:14,244 --> 00:47:17,213
Hey, Colonel, think about us
when you're riding down
Fifth Avenue, will you?
570
00:47:18,513 --> 00:47:20,072
It will be hard not to.
571
00:47:22,784 --> 00:47:24,718
Thanks, Pappy.
572
00:47:26,054 --> 00:47:27,749
Oh, by the way,
573
00:47:28,790 --> 00:47:33,956
I arranged for halfthose
cases of spare parts
left behind "by mistake".
574
00:47:34,028 --> 00:47:36,052
Hey, Rod, I want you to know
I really appreciate that,
575
00:47:36,129 --> 00:47:39,793
but we have had those
spare parts for three days
in our planes,
576
00:47:39,866 --> 00:47:41,857
those crates
are filled with rocks.
577
00:47:47,374 --> 00:47:49,934
Black Sheep
must've taken them off
last night.
578
00:47:50,010 --> 00:47:52,536
Good thing
I caught it in time, huh?
579
00:47:53,513 --> 00:47:55,504
Greg, I...
580
00:47:58,385 --> 00:48:02,082
What do you call that?
That's show biz?
581
00:48:03,522 --> 00:48:04,990
MAN: Let's get one more shot,
gentleman.
582
00:48:05,558 --> 00:48:07,150
That's the one. Hold it.
