You want a public apology?

Well, sir,
you'd better take this up
with General Moore.

He's the one who
requested fighter support.

if we have fighter support?

could tell you better.

what's wrong with

they don't need fighter cover.

gonna have to learn

more than to swing
from trees and eat bananas.

from the Zeros shouldn't
be able to knock her down.

I've already had
one run-in with
this general

and he seems fairly
committed to flying missions
without fighter cover.
128

As a matter of fact,
he's adamant about it.

So what's the problem?
130
00:07:49,375 --> 00:07:52,208
Give him some extra shark
repellent and send him off.
131
00:07:52,278 --> 00:07:54,770

and that makes him
my responsibility.

I'm not risking it.

Apparently they were
having a drink

It's a pleasure.
168
00:09:42,081 --> 00:09:45,415
If you're looking
for your men,
they're in the brig.
169
00:09:45,484 --> 00:09:46,780
They'll be along.
170
00:09:46,851 --> 00:09:48,285
No, they won't.
171
00:09:48,353 --> 00:09:50,946
l was sort of hoping
you and I would run into
each other this morning.
172
00:09:51,021 --> 00:09:53,513
I understand General Moore
gave you escort orders.
173
00:09:53,590 --> 00:09:55,422
That's right, General.
174
00:09:55,492 --> 00:09:56,755
Well, I'm canceling them.
175
00:09:56,827 --> 00:09:58,226
I'm afraid
you can't do that, sir.
176
00:09:58,295 --> 00:10:02,664
General Moore instructed me
to fly escort until
he personally pulled me off.
177
00:10:02,866 --> 00:10:04,390
Let me get this straight.
178
00:10:04,467 --> 00:10:06,959
You are telling me that
you are refusing to obey
179
00:10:07,036 --> 00:10:08,834
a direct order
from a brigadier general?
180
00:10:08,905 --> 00:10:10,339
Is that what
you're telling me, Major?
181
00:10:11,140 --> 00:10:14,405
I think you got it straight,
General. Right on the button.
182
00:10:14,477 --> 00:10:15,967
Then you're
a very foolish officer
183
00:10:16,045 --> 00:10:18,377
who is going to be written up
and court-martialed.
184
00:10:18,448 --> 00:10:19,882
Let me give you
some bad news, General.
185
00:10:19,949 --> 00:10:21,973
I'm the most court-martialed
officer in the Marine Corps.
186
00:10:22,050 --> 00:10:24,781
This year alone,
I've been brought up
on charges six times.
187
00:10:24,853 --> 00:10:28,312
I'm gonna fly
this escort according to
General Moore's orders.
188
00:10:28,390 --> 00:10:30,586
I want you in my quarters
at 1400 hours, Major.
189
00:10:30,659 --> 00:10:32,457
Until then,
you are under house arrest.
190
00:10:36,798 --> 00:10:39,358
I really hate it
when they get like that.
191
00:10:39,434 --> 00:10:40,730
No, you don't.
192
00:10:40,801 --> 00:10:42,235
You love it.
193
00:10:43,104 --> 00:10:45,038
Let's find out
what went wrong.
194
00:10:55,349 --> 00:10:56,839
They're still
in the brig!
195
00:10:56,917 --> 00:10:58,749
Well, get them out.
I can't.
196
00:10:58,819 --> 00:11:01,584
General Wright personally
ordered the captain inside
to hold them.
197
00:11:01,655 --> 00:11:03,987
He won't turn them loose.
I tried.
198
00:11:04,058 --> 00:11:07,494
Well, after all, he is
a General, Boyington.
I'm a Colonel.
199
00:11:07,561 --> 00:11:09,289
And General Moore is
in Washington,
200
00:11:09,362 --> 00:11:14,163
I spent the night
reading up on conflict
of command in the manual.
201
00:11:14,234 --> 00:11:15,998
And that's what
we've got here.
202
00:11:16,836 --> 00:11:21,740
Page 12,
Subsection 6 states
that any ranking officer
203
00:11:21,808 --> 00:11:24,243
can counter standing orders
204
00:11:24,310 --> 00:11:29,145
if they pertain to command
decisions outlined
in Subsection 24,
205
00:11:29,615 --> 00:11:33,882
which states that
a commander
in charge must have
206
00:11:33,952 --> 00:11:36,249
clearjurisdictional control
207
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,048
provided he has been
given that proximity
208
00:11:38,121 --> 00:11:41,954
by orders generated
in prior channels
209
00:11:42,024 --> 00:11:45,085
and from
a higher ranking officer.
210
00:11:47,496 --> 00:11:49,793
Really pulling
on the old rope,
aren't you, Colonel?
211
00:11:50,632 --> 00:11:53,033
I think that the manual
was made to be followed.
212
00:11:53,101 --> 00:11:56,560
I think that's
the most confusing
paragraph I ever heard.
213
00:11:56,638 --> 00:11:59,663
And confusion always
works in your favor
214
00:12:00,207 --> 00:12:02,301
when you're disobeying
superior officers.
215
00:12:02,376 --> 00:12:03,639
Now, take my word for it...
216
00:12:03,710 --> 00:12:07,703
He's a General, Boyington,
a one star General.
217
00:12:07,947 --> 00:12:09,415
Colonel, give me a break.
218
00:12:09,482 --> 00:12:11,041
Turn your back
on this thing,
219
00:12:11,884 --> 00:12:13,544
and I'll get my boys
out ofthe brig,
220
00:12:13,618 --> 00:12:17,851
and fly this mission according
to General Moore's orders.
221
00:12:25,130 --> 00:12:26,564
I'm gonna get
some breakfast.
222
00:12:26,631 --> 00:12:28,155
Good. Make it last
at least half an hour.
223
00:12:28,232 --> 00:12:30,792
And if you hear
a commotion,
224
00:12:31,902 --> 00:12:34,599
go to the head
and lock the door.
225
00:12:45,382 --> 00:12:46,713
GREG: General Wright
had me in a bind.
226
00:12:46,784 --> 00:12:48,878
He was ranking officer
in Espritos Marcos,
227
00:12:48,953 --> 00:12:50,887
and he didn't want me
flying escort for him.
228
00:12:50,955 --> 00:12:52,923
But General Moore had
ordered me to do it.
229
00:12:52,990 --> 00:12:55,755
To obey one general,
[had to disobey another.
230
00:12:55,859 --> 00:12:58,988
And I had less than
30 minutes to get my pilots
out of the brig
231
00:12:59,063 --> 00:13:01,656
and in the air if we were
going to catch
the Flying Fortresses
232
00:13:01,731 --> 00:13:03,391
before they reached the Slot.
233
00:13:03,465 --> 00:13:04,989
General Bull Taylor.
234
00:13:11,504 --> 00:13:13,905
I want you men up against
that wall looking smart.
235
00:13:20,313 --> 00:13:21,803
Been out here long, son?
236
00:13:21,881 --> 00:13:23,781
No, sir.
About six months.
237
00:13:27,220 --> 00:13:28,915
How much to open up?
238
00:13:29,089 --> 00:13:30,853
Sorry, sir,
we can't do that.
239
00:13:33,326 --> 00:13:34,986
Are you fining me, boy?
240
00:13:35,194 --> 00:13:36,558
Sir?
241
00:13:37,362 --> 00:13:39,592
You some kind of
foul-up Marine?
242
00:13:40,298 --> 00:13:41,356
Sir?
243
00:13:41,432 --> 00:13:42,524
Never kid a kidder, boy!
244
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:47,504
I know that you have to be
a special kind of bone head
to be a brig officer.
245
00:13:47,572 --> 00:13:49,973
Brig officers are
being punished.
246
00:13:50,408 --> 00:13:52,172
Now, this is a leper colony,
247
00:13:52,243 --> 00:13:53,971
and I wanna know
how come you're here,
248
00:13:54,044 --> 00:13:56,035
and I wanna know
right now, boy.
249
00:13:56,813 --> 00:13:58,872
Low aptitude score, sir.
250
00:14:02,585 --> 00:14:04,882
All right.
I want them opened.
251
00:14:04,953 --> 00:14:07,854
I'm sorry, sir,
but we're not supposed to.
252
00:14:14,129 --> 00:14:17,759
Ain't hard to see why
you're scoring low, sonny.
253
00:14:17,832 --> 00:14:21,233
Let me give you
a quick aptitude test
right here on the spot.
254
00:14:21,702 --> 00:14:22,930
Yes, sir.
255
00:14:25,004 --> 00:14:26,631
What's that you got
on your collar?
256
00:14:26,706 --> 00:14:27,764
Captain's bars.
257
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,308
And what's this here
on my collar?
258
00:14:29,375 --> 00:14:31,002
General's stars, sir.
259
00:14:32,578 --> 00:14:36,310
Now, if a man wearing
a star was to give an order
260
00:14:36,382 --> 00:14:41,081
to a man wearing those
little railroad bars
a direct order...
261
00:14:41,154 --> 00:14:42,382
l'll open them
up for you, sir.
262
00:14:42,454 --> 00:14:44,821
Open it up. Right now!
263
00:14:48,126 --> 00:14:49,924
You did
the right thing, son.
264
00:14:51,463 --> 00:14:52,897
Ten-hut!
265
00:14:57,202 --> 00:14:59,499
You boys been
in some trouble?
266
00:14:59,570 --> 00:15:03,370
Yes, sir, general.
We got in a fight
in the officers club.
267
00:15:04,308 --> 00:15:05,968
Where you from, boy?
268
00:15:06,710 --> 00:15:08,542
Bristol, Tennessee, sir.
269
00:15:10,013 --> 00:15:11,640
Had breakfast?
270
00:15:11,848 --> 00:15:13,714
It's right over there.
271
00:15:22,158 --> 00:15:25,025
What kind of food do they
serve in the brig nowadays?
272
00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:32,296
Captain,
come here a minute.
273
00:15:40,677 --> 00:15:43,078
Is this some kind ofjoke,
Captain?
274
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,546
What's your name, son?
275
00:15:45,682 --> 00:15:47,446
Captain Evil Martin.
276
00:15:49,085 --> 00:15:50,985
You get pleasure
out of serving this
kind of food, son?
277
00:15:51,054 --> 00:15:52,646
I don't know
how it happened, sir.
278
00:15:54,522 --> 00:15:57,321
You men haven't had
a breakfast,
279
00:15:57,925 --> 00:15:59,723
you've had
a practical joke.
280
00:16:00,428 --> 00:16:02,487
I'm gonna take you
out of here,
281
00:16:02,563 --> 00:16:03,997
I'm gonna take you
to the mess hall,
282
00:16:04,065 --> 00:16:05,429
I'm gonna feed
you breakfast.
283
00:16:05,866 --> 00:16:09,097
(MEN SIGH)
I'll tell you one thing
I will not tolerate.
284
00:16:09,836 --> 00:16:13,329
I will not tolerate cruelty
under my command.
285
00:16:13,774 --> 00:16:16,334
I don't care
ifthese men are
in the brig or not!
286
00:16:16,410 --> 00:16:17,605
Do you understand that?
Yes, sir.
287
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,312
Turn them loose, Captain.
288
00:16:23,316 --> 00:16:24,511
But, sir,
General Wright gave me...
289
00:16:24,584 --> 00:16:26,881
There you go having
that aptitude problem
again, boy.
290
00:16:26,952 --> 00:16:29,319
Yes, sir. l'll release them
into your custody.
291
00:16:30,322 --> 00:16:32,188
Okay, you guys.
Stay tight.
292
00:16:32,258 --> 00:16:34,727
We ought to be coming up
on these army hot dogs
any minute.
293
00:16:39,265 --> 00:16:41,529
Hey, Greg, we got a weather
front moving in out there.
294
00:16:41,667 --> 00:16:43,101
GREG: (ON RADIO)
Then we gotta find
those bombers now.
295
00:16:43,169 --> 00:16:45,466
They have
the navigational equipment.
296
00:16:45,537 --> 00:16:48,268
NA VIGA TOR: Navigator to pilot.
We've got a fog front
coming in on us.
297
00:16:48,807 --> 00:16:52,072
Won't run into any Zekes
with a fog bank.
298
00:16:52,143 --> 00:16:54,111
We're 55 minutes
from the target, sir.
299
00:16:54,179 --> 00:16:55,237
Right.
300
00:16:55,313 --> 00:16:58,476
TAIL GUNNER.โ Sir, we have some
aircraft coming in behind us,
closing fast.
301
00:16:59,250 --> 00:17:02,880
Okay, everybody, stay alert.
We may have some bogies
coming in behind.
302
00:17:03,087 --> 00:17:05,522
GREG: Fort Apache,
this is Black Sheep One
303
00:17:05,590 --> 00:17:08,082
coming in at 6:00 even.
304
00:17:09,761 --> 00:17:12,526
Fort Apache to Apache Wing,
hold your fire.
305
00:17:12,597 --> 00:17:15,532
We have fighter escort
approaching.
306
00:17:19,069 --> 00:17:21,561
You're a real hot head, Major.
I thought we had this out.
307
00:17:21,638 --> 00:17:24,266
GREG: You want to dump me?
Take it up with General Moore.
308
00:17:24,341 --> 00:17:27,742
Until I hear from him,
I'm gonna be right here
in your hip pocket, General.
309
00:17:27,810 --> 00:17:29,574
We'll have to see
about that, Major.
310
00:17:29,645 --> 00:17:31,511
Roger, Fort Apache.
311
00:17:32,081 --> 00:17:34,674
We're on heading 167.
312
00:17:34,916 --> 00:17:37,408
Acknowledge strike
heading, over.
313
00:17:37,486 --> 00:17:39,955
No need, Major.
Just fly VFR.
314
00:17:40,021 --> 00:17:42,718
We got some weather
coming in, General.
315
00:17:45,494 --> 00:17:48,395
GREG: It's getting thick
out here. Can't see a thing.
316
00:17:59,107 --> 00:18:01,404
Hey, Greg,
what's with this guy?
317
00:18:01,709 --> 00:18:03,268
GREG:
Everybody stay tight.
318
00:18:03,344 --> 00:18:04,812
We're gonna hold
the same heading.
319
00:18:04,879 --> 00:18:08,144
If anybody gets separated,
we're in trouble.
320
00:18:09,283 --> 00:18:11,718
Black Sheep one
to Fort Apache.
321
00:18:11,785 --> 00:18:14,982
Give us a corrected heading.
We're flying blind.
322
00:18:15,789 --> 00:18:17,223
Let's turn back, Ted,
323
00:18:17,625 --> 00:18:20,424
we aren't gonna
meet any Zekes
in this marshmallow.
324
00:18:20,494 --> 00:18:22,154
What about the fighter
cover, General?
325
00:18:22,228 --> 00:18:23,524
We can't leave
them out here.
326
00:18:23,595 --> 00:18:25,586
They don't have
any navigational equipment.
327
00:18:25,664 --> 00:18:27,154
They won't get back.
328
00:18:27,232 --> 00:18:28,756
Notify them
we're turning out.
329
00:18:28,833 --> 00:18:31,530
They can dead reckon
out ofthe fog. It only runs
back about 50 miles.
330
00:18:31,602 --> 00:18:33,070
Excuse me, Rick,
331
00:18:33,804 --> 00:18:35,863
but I think we ought to bring
those guys back with us.
332
00:18:39,477 --> 00:18:42,469
I'm gonna teach that major
to stay in place.
333
00:18:43,915 --> 00:18:48,876
Apache wing, we are executing
a tight 180 at 170 knots.
334
00:18:48,953 --> 00:18:50,512
Everybody stay bunched.
335
00:18:50,588 --> 00:18:52,215
You hear that, Greg?
GREG: Yeah.
336
00:18:52,290 --> 00:18:53,689
They're leaving us.
337
00:18:53,758 --> 00:18:57,524
Fort Apache,
give us a heading.
This is Black Sheep One.
338
00:18:57,595 --> 00:18:59,461
We're blind up here.
339
00:19:04,035 --> 00:19:05,503
Okay, fellas.
340
00:19:06,037 --> 00:19:09,006
We're gonna have to do
a little dead reckoning.
341
00:19:09,072 --> 00:19:11,404
Can everybody see
his wing man?
342
00:19:12,242 --> 00:19:13,368
MAN: Barely, Greg.
343
00:19:13,443 --> 00:19:14,739
T.J.: Not me.
Where are you, Jim?
344
00:19:14,810 --> 00:19:17,370
GUTTERMAN.โ Just keep
your head, T.J.,
I'll find you.
345
00:19:17,446 --> 00:19:20,177
Okay, fellas,
we're gonna do
a tight 180.
346
00:19:20,249 --> 00:19:21,717
Everybody stay in view.
347
00:19:21,784 --> 00:19:25,185
If you get lost,
you're gonna have to
make it home alone.
348
00:19:25,253 --> 00:19:26,812
Everybody stay tight.
349
00:19:49,944 --> 00:19:52,709
We're going down
to 1,000 feet.
350
00:19:53,281 --> 00:19:54,976
Hope we don't fly
into any mountains.
351
00:19:55,950 --> 00:19:56,974
Let's go.
352
00:20:19,574 --> 00:20:20,769
GREG: I'm out of the fog!
353
00:20:20,842 --> 00:20:22,401
(ALL CHEER/NG)
354
00:20:24,612 --> 00:20:26,171
MAN:
All right, we made it!
355
00:20:26,247 --> 00:20:27,646
GUTTERMAN.โ
Way to go, Pappy.
356
00:20:27,715 --> 00:20:29,205
Ain't that
a pretty sight?
357
00:20:31,486 --> 00:20:33,250
always wondered what
you were using for brains.
358
00:20:33,321 --> 00:20:35,255
I never had any idea
it was a gyrocompass.
359
00:20:37,492 --> 00:20:39,256
Okay, you meatheads,
360
00:20:39,761 --> 00:20:41,752
let's set these birds down.
361
00:20:44,665 --> 00:20:46,565
When I get down,
I'm gonna kill that general.
362
00:20:46,633 --> 00:20:48,067
No you're not, Jim.
363
00:20:48,135 --> 00:20:50,001
Why not? You saying
he don't deserve
a good stomping?
364
00:20:50,070 --> 00:20:53,267
No. I'm saying
I'm gonna be the one
who gives it to him.
365
00:20:55,609 --> 00:20:57,407
GREG: Let's get in there
and deck those clowns.
366
00:20:57,477 --> 00:20:59,036
They're gonna be
flying hospital beds.
367
00:20:59,112 --> 00:21:00,807
T.J.: I never punched out
an Air Force jock before.
368
00:21:00,881 --> 00:21:03,646
GUTTERMAN: I'll show you
how it's done T.J.
369
00:21:04,584 --> 00:21:06,916
Where's your General?
370
00:21:06,987 --> 00:21:08,921
He was here, Major.
He left.
371
00:21:08,989 --> 00:21:10,649
You boys proud
of yourselves?
372
00:21:10,723 --> 00:21:13,090
Jim, I can't keep getting
you out ofthe brig.
373
00:21:13,159 --> 00:21:14,819
Captain,
for what it's worth,
374
00:21:14,893 --> 00:21:16,621
I'm sorry about
what happened today.
375
00:21:16,694 --> 00:21:18,685
I don't understand
why General Wright
did it myself.
376
00:21:18,796 --> 00:21:20,127
I suppose he had
his reasons.
377
00:21:20,230 --> 00:21:23,393
His reasons are your general
is a three alarm head case.
378
00:21:23,534 --> 00:21:26,127
The man is trying
to apologize to you.
379
00:21:26,202 --> 00:21:28,170
Look, the least we can do
is buy you guys a drink.
380
00:21:28,237 --> 00:21:30,228
Personally, I gotta
tell you guys
381
00:21:30,339 --> 00:21:31,966
I felt kind of
naked up there.
382
00:21:32,375 --> 00:21:35,003
When you showed up
it took a load off my mind.
383
00:21:35,678 --> 00:21:38,113
Well, this one here's
talking some sense.
384
00:21:38,247 --> 00:21:40,648
I guess we can join
these hole diggers over
at the bar
385
00:21:40,717 --> 00:21:41,707
and take up
on that drink.
386
00:21:45,588 --> 00:21:46,578
GREG: Where is he?
387
00:21:46,656 --> 00:21:49,182
I don't know where he is.
It's not my day to watch him.
388
00:21:50,793 --> 00:21:53,592
He left us out there in
the middle of a fog bank.
389
00:21:53,663 --> 00:21:56,724
It was flat luck that
we got back here at all.
390
00:21:56,799 --> 00:21:59,096
So, what am I
supposed to do?
391
00:21:59,301 --> 00:22:02,737
You know, I'm about ready
to kill Moore for laying this
on me before he went away.
392
00:22:02,804 --> 00:22:04,898
I mean, you may
find it easy to tell
a Brigadier General
393
00:22:04,973 --> 00:22:07,032
to go shinny up
a tree, Boyington,
394
00:22:07,109 --> 00:22:08,873
but I don't.
That's not my way.
395
00:22:08,977 --> 00:22:10,911
I would choke on
my tongue if I tried.
396
00:22:10,979 --> 00:22:13,003
You've been hiding
from him, haven't you?
397
00:22:13,147 --> 00:22:15,444
Where do you hide on
a two square mile island?
398
00:22:16,116 --> 00:22:17,640
Look, Boyington, I've been
thinking about this.
399
00:22:17,716 --> 00:22:19,810
And I think we should
drop the fighter cover.
400
00:22:20,419 --> 00:22:21,409
Colonel,
401
00:22:22,054 --> 00:22:23,112
I'm going up.
402
00:22:23,255 --> 00:22:24,415
VVhy?
403
00:22:25,356 --> 00:22:27,984
Because I don't like the way
the general does business.
404
00:22:28,126 --> 00:22:31,187
And because General Moore
ordered us to fly
cover for him.
405
00:22:31,896 --> 00:22:33,260
Okay, Boyington.
406
00:22:35,098 --> 00:22:37,999
Looks like you and l are on
the same side ofthings
for once, doesn't it?
407
00:22:38,535 --> 00:22:41,664
But let me tell you
something, Boyington,
you are a fighting Marine.
408
00:22:42,139 --> 00:22:44,335
You're out there
and you get results.
409
00:22:44,407 --> 00:22:46,067
You can take chances
and get away with it.
410
00:22:46,142 --> 00:22:48,008
lam a paper shuffler.
411
00:22:48,077 --> 00:22:50,136
Doesn't work that way
for me anymore.
412
00:22:50,212 --> 00:22:53,237
If I cross him,
I'll end up the rest of
my career dodging him.
413
00:22:53,314 --> 00:22:54,304
And I don't want
to do that.
414
00:22:55,683 --> 00:22:57,811
So where does
that leave us?
415
00:22:58,787 --> 00:23:01,347
I guess what I'm saying,
Boyington, is that
416
00:23:02,290 --> 00:23:05,487
if you wanna take anymore
chances with him,
you go right ahead.
417
00:23:05,860 --> 00:23:08,386
I'll try to cover for you
afterward if I can,
418
00:23:08,696 --> 00:23:11,893
but I'm not disobeying
any direct orders
from General Wright.
419
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,897
I've made that decision
and I think you ought
to know it.
420
00:23:15,303 --> 00:23:16,793
Fair enough.
421
00:23:22,876 --> 00:23:24,742
Thanks for telling me.
422
00:23:30,284 --> 00:23:31,944
(SWING MUSIC PLAYING)
423
00:23:41,494 --> 00:23:43,724
Will somebody kill that?
424
00:23:46,532 --> 00:23:47,556
(MUSIC STOPS)
425
00:23:47,633 --> 00:23:49,624
Sorry to break this up
426
00:23:50,136 --> 00:23:53,037
but my pilots and crews
are flying at 0700 tomorrow,
427
00:23:53,105 --> 00:23:55,733
and I want everybody sharp.
428
00:23:56,876 --> 00:23:58,172
Where's Major Boyington?
429
00:23:58,343 --> 00:24:00,311
Right over here, General.
430
00:24:00,912 --> 00:24:02,778
Where you been hiding?
431
00:24:07,085 --> 00:24:09,281
If you like to discuss
this morning's mission.
432
00:24:09,621 --> 00:24:11,145
I'll be in my quarters
in 10 minutes.
433
00:24:11,989 --> 00:24:13,616
With my star off.
434
00:24:14,425 --> 00:24:16,792
Okay, Boyington,
we're going to have
this out.
435
00:24:16,861 --> 00:24:19,296
That's fine with me.
There's a lot ofthings
I been meaning to say to you.
436
00:24:19,363 --> 00:24:21,161
You mind letting
me finish, Major?
437
00:24:21,632 --> 00:24:24,657
To begin with,
I owe you an apology.
438
00:24:25,068 --> 00:24:26,399
What I did was wrong.
439
00:24:26,469 --> 00:24:27,800
I shouldn't have
left you up there.
440
00:24:27,871 --> 00:24:28,963
Now, there's a flash.
441
00:24:29,038 --> 00:24:30,164
You want to shut up,
Boyington?
442
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,334
When I'm through with what
I have to say,
then you can get...
443
00:24:32,408 --> 00:24:34,274
I didn't come here to
have a debate, General.
444
00:24:34,344 --> 00:24:36,004
Look, I made a mistake
this morning.
445
00:24:36,078 --> 00:24:37,670
I could have gotten you
and your pilots killed.
446
00:24:38,145 --> 00:24:39,669
It was foolish.
447
00:24:39,746 --> 00:24:40,941
I regret doing it.
448
00:24:41,014 --> 00:24:42,310
You regret it?
449
00:24:42,381 --> 00:24:43,405
You through?
450
00:24:43,482 --> 00:24:44,472
Just a minute, Major.
451
00:24:46,151 --> 00:24:48,381
For two years,
I've had a plan.
452
00:24:49,921 --> 00:24:51,513
I fought for money on
the floor of the Congress.
453
00:24:51,588 --> 00:24:53,556
I got those tin flying
fortresses out there built.
454
00:24:53,724 --> 00:24:56,193
Now, look,
I am absolutely convinced
455
00:24:56,260 --> 00:24:59,423
that they are
the answer to long-range
precision bombing.
456
00:25:02,232 --> 00:25:05,532
Unfortunately, sometimes
Washington can get tricky.
457
00:25:07,136 --> 00:25:09,264
There are a lot of people
who want to see more
emphasis placed on
458
00:25:09,338 --> 00:25:11,204
lightening interceptors,
P-38s.
459
00:25:11,274 --> 00:25:14,801
The aircraft manufacturers
spend a lot oftime and money
convincing Senators
460
00:25:14,877 --> 00:25:15,901
one way or the other.
461
00:25:16,679 --> 00:25:19,046
So I'm out here
for one purpose only.
462
00:25:20,216 --> 00:25:21,479
To prove my theory.
463
00:25:21,550 --> 00:25:23,711
I can't do that if I fly
with fighter escort.
464
00:25:23,785 --> 00:25:26,082
Now, look, I believe
in myself, I believe
in my airplanes...
465
00:25:26,153 --> 00:25:27,643
And I think you're nuts.
466
00:25:27,755 --> 00:25:30,656
If you fly without
fighter cover, you're
gonna kill your pilots.
467
00:25:30,724 --> 00:25:31,714
Let me finish!
468
00:25:31,792 --> 00:25:34,591
You come in here with
a star on your collar
and you think that's it.
469
00:25:34,695 --> 00:25:36,595
Well, let me
give you my end.
470
00:25:36,764 --> 00:25:38,562
You can take your B-17s.
471
00:25:38,632 --> 00:25:40,327
You can take
your Washington problems,
472
00:25:40,401 --> 00:25:42,199
you can take
your 50 mission hat,
473
00:25:42,269 --> 00:25:43,759
and stick them
in your ditty bag!
474
00:25:43,904 --> 00:25:48,307
What you did to my squadron
up there this morning cancels
everything out, sir.
475
00:25:48,375 --> 00:25:50,103
What do you want, Boyington?
You want a public apology?
476
00:25:50,176 --> 00:25:51,200
You wanna read it
in the Stars and Stripes?
477
00:25:51,277 --> 00:25:53,769
No, I'll tell you what I want!
I wanna take it
out of your hide!
478
00:25:54,781 --> 00:25:56,340
Now in order to do that,
479
00:25:57,016 --> 00:25:59,280
you will have to shuck
a lot of military protocol.
480
00:25:59,352 --> 00:26:01,616
Would that settle anything?
No, it never settles anything.
481
00:26:02,422 --> 00:26:04,719
But sometimes it
makes you feel better.
482
00:26:05,891 --> 00:26:07,290
Was there
anything else, sir?
483
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,384
Yes, you're not
flying tomorrow.
484
00:26:10,828 --> 00:26:12,819
Since General Moore
ordered you to fly
485
00:26:12,897 --> 00:26:15,628
and you persist
in disobeying me
in favor of him,
486
00:26:16,434 --> 00:26:19,768
l have taken other
precautions to guarantee
you will stand down.
487
00:26:20,538 --> 00:26:23,997
All the fuel allotments on
this island were supplied
by army quartermasters.
488
00:26:24,875 --> 00:26:27,071
l've locked it up, Boyington.
489
00:26:42,226 --> 00:26:44,320
Sarge, it's all figured out.
490
00:26:44,395 --> 00:26:45,726
All you gotta do is make
friends with them,
491
00:26:45,796 --> 00:26:47,024
and wait for me to
give you the signal.
492
00:26:47,097 --> 00:26:48,121
I ain't doing it.
493
00:26:48,198 --> 00:26:49,597
Come on, Sarge,
there's nothing to it.
494
00:26:49,666 --> 00:26:50,724
You don't even have to
lie or anything.
495
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:51,858
Nope.
496
00:26:51,935 --> 00:26:53,369
What's the matter with you?
497
00:26:53,436 --> 00:26:55,564
You like to see all
these birds grounded?
498
00:26:55,638 --> 00:26:57,538
Or do you want to work
for the Army?
499
00:26:58,408 --> 00:27:00,467
You know, Major,
that General could take you.
500
00:27:00,577 --> 00:27:01,976
Don't change the subject.
501
00:27:02,045 --> 00:27:05,572
Are you gonna help us
get that gas from these
turtle fliers or not?
502
00:27:08,485 --> 00:27:10,077
I never was much at lying.
503
00:27:10,219 --> 00:27:12,620
All right, then
give me your shirt.
504
00:27:12,921 --> 00:27:14,013
Huh?
505
00:27:14,089 --> 00:27:15,385
You heard me.
506
00:27:15,456 --> 00:27:18,425
I said give me
your shirt, and that's
an order, Sergeant.
507
00:27:23,897 --> 00:27:26,628
WRIGHT: (ON RADIO)
This is Fort Apache to
Apache flight leaders.
508
00:27:26,833 --> 00:27:27,959
You've got the grids.
509
00:27:28,035 --> 00:27:29,833
We will by flying
without fighter escort.
510
00:27:29,936 --> 00:27:34,771
Repeat, no fighter escort,
so tail gunners and
waist gunners stay alert.
511
00:27:34,907 --> 00:27:36,466
Keep the formation tight.
512
00:27:48,054 --> 00:27:49,317
Who you attached to,
Sergeant?
513
00:27:49,388 --> 00:27:50,787
I'm with
field maintenance, sir.
514
00:27:50,856 --> 00:27:52,415
I'm supposed to
clean up around here.
515
00:27:52,491 --> 00:27:53,515
Well, get to it.
516
00:27:53,592 --> 00:27:55,184
Yes, sir, yes, sir.
517
00:28:09,674 --> 00:28:11,073
What can I
do you gentlemen?
518
00:28:11,910 --> 00:28:13,810
Captains Shiber,
Costa and Smith.
519
00:28:13,878 --> 00:28:16,279
ComSouPac Theater
superintendents,
sixth column.
520
00:28:16,347 --> 00:28:17,337
So what do you want?
521
00:28:17,449 --> 00:28:19,247
I got instructions not
to let anybody in.
522
00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:20,714
They come direct
from General Wright.
523
00:28:20,784 --> 00:28:21,876
General Wright again.
524
00:28:21,952 --> 00:28:22,942
What do you want to do?
525
00:28:23,420 --> 00:28:24,716
Well, we have
to put it down,
526
00:28:24,787 --> 00:28:27,017
but it isn't gonna go over
very well with High Command.
527
00:28:27,523 --> 00:28:29,321
What is it?
528
00:28:29,759 --> 00:28:31,659
Lieutenant, may I ask
you a question?
Yes, sir.
529
00:28:31,727 --> 00:28:33,251
When you filled up those
bombers this morning,
530
00:28:33,328 --> 00:28:34,692
how much gasoline
did you put on board?
531
00:28:34,762 --> 00:28:36,025
We topped them off.
532
00:28:36,230 --> 00:28:38,722
You hear that?
There's Wright's hogging
fuel again.
533
00:28:38,866 --> 00:28:42,234
General Wright has one
ofthe worst records in
the quartermasters corps.
534
00:28:42,303 --> 00:28:47,138
We are removing
15,000 gallons
from this gas depot.
535
00:28:47,307 --> 00:28:50,766
lf General Wright doesn't
like it, tell him to contact
us at Theater Command.
536
00:28:51,044 --> 00:28:53,138
Is that truck full?
537
00:28:53,279 --> 00:28:55,805
I'm sorry, sir,
but you can't.
538
00:28:55,882 --> 00:28:57,008
I've got strict orders.
539
00:28:57,117 --> 00:28:58,551
You've got new ones now
Lieutenant,
540
00:28:58,618 --> 00:29:00,609
or maybe you'd like to explain
it to Theater Command?
541
00:29:03,922 --> 00:29:05,582
Excuse me, gentlemen.
542
00:29:07,991 --> 00:29:09,117
What is it, Sergeant?
543
00:29:09,359 --> 00:29:12,624
Lieutenant, are those guys
telling you that they're
with Theater Command.
544
00:29:12,729 --> 00:29:14,321
Yeah, something
about gas hoarding.
545
00:29:14,663 --> 00:29:16,631
They're pilots with 214.
546
00:29:17,099 --> 00:29:18,533
They're trying to pull
something over on you.
547
00:29:18,601 --> 00:29:21,798
If I was you, I'd get this
tanker truck out of here
548
00:29:21,871 --> 00:29:24,135
before they take it
away from you.
549
00:29:24,874 --> 00:29:27,309
I'll keep them busy.
Would you get it
out of here, Sergeant?
550
00:29:27,676 --> 00:29:31,373
I don't know, sir.
I ain't licensed for
this kind oftruck.
551
00:29:31,446 --> 00:29:32,914
l'll cover for you
this once.
552
00:29:34,182 --> 00:29:35,172
Well...
553
00:29:36,818 --> 00:29:37,910
Well, if you say so.
554
00:29:37,986 --> 00:29:38,976
Thanks, Sergeant.
555
00:29:44,259 --> 00:29:46,751
Well, look, the keys
to the truck are in the tent.
556
00:29:46,828 --> 00:29:48,796
I suppose if you guys give me
the paperwork and everything,
557
00:29:48,863 --> 00:29:49,887
I can let you have it.
558
00:29:49,964 --> 00:29:51,454
Very wise of you.
559
00:29:53,935 --> 00:29:56,495
Of course I know you guys
are pilots with the 214
560
00:29:56,571 --> 00:29:57,902
and I've just
removed the fuel
561
00:29:57,972 --> 00:30:00,168
so you can forget
the rough stuff
and just get moving.
562
00:30:03,945 --> 00:30:07,074
Boy, you Army lieutenants
are really sharp.
563
00:30:07,148 --> 00:30:08,582
Certainly are sharp.
564
00:30:09,150 --> 00:30:10,378
Everybody stay sharp.
565
00:30:10,551 --> 00:30:13,077
Fort Apache, this is
Black Sheep One.
566
00:30:13,153 --> 00:30:15,485
We're joining up for
fighter escort duty.
567
00:30:16,689 --> 00:30:19,920
No fog, looks like
a nice day for flying.
568
00:30:20,393 --> 00:30:22,088
Fort Apache to
Apache Squadron.
569
00:30:22,161 --> 00:30:25,130
We have fighter cover
intercepting from the rear.
570
00:30:33,471 --> 00:30:34,835
Let's go get them!

Break left, break left.

00:30:54,291 --> 00:30:55,622
Let me have it.
574
00:30:57,761 --> 00:30:59,285
Reel across me.
575
00:31:04,634 --> 00:31:05,624
You got him.
576
00:31:06,302 --> 00:31:08,270
Rolling out, Boyle,

behind you, Bob.
578
00:31:28,324 --> 00:31:30,816
Keep you head down.

Fighter attack turned
back. They're going home,
Fort Apache.
583
00:32:32,955 --> 00:32:35,947
They didn't do much damage,
did they, Black Sheep One?
584
00:32:36,059 --> 00:32:38,619
Only six or seven got
through us, General.
585
00:32:38,861 --> 00:32:41,626
Hardly enough to do
any damage, sir.
586
00:32:49,272 --> 00:32:50,762
Fort Apache to navigator.
587
00:32:51,207 --> 00:32:54,142
We'll be coming out ofthis
flack field in a few minutes
588
00:32:54,210 --> 00:32:56,008
and will reset up
on target.
589
00:32:56,079 --> 00:32:57,239
You'll have the aircraft.

All flight leaders
form up on me.
592
00:32:59,948 --> 00:33:02,007
We'll hit this target
in echelon.
593
00:33:02,084 --> 00:33:03,483
Fighter cover
will break off.
594
00:33:03,719 --> 00:33:06,381
Roger, Fort Apache.
Good luck and see you
back home.

(EXPLOSION)
596
00:33:54,002 --> 00:33:56,903
When we get down,
I'm gonna kill that guy.
597
00:33:56,972 --> 00:33:57,962
Yes, sir.
598
00:34:23,298 --> 00:34:25,130
WRIGHT:
Do you have someplace
you like, Major?
599
00:34:25,367 --> 00:34:27,199
I like the beach,
but it's too long a walk.
600
00:34:27,269 --> 00:34:28,964
I'll find someplace
close by.
601
00:34:29,037 --> 00:34:30,765
Fine, whenever
you're ready.
602
00:34:30,838 --> 00:34:32,670
Be ready in just a minute.

And that's an order.
606
00:34:49,822 --> 00:34:53,622
You know, one ofthe nice
things about being a general
607
00:34:53,692 --> 00:34:56,423
is this doesn't
happen too often.
608
00:34:57,895 --> 00:34:59,829
You got a great right hand,
Greg.
609
00:34:59,931 --> 00:35:02,457
Nothing wrong with your left
hook either, General.
610
00:35:03,134 --> 00:35:05,831
You know, I'm right
about these bombers.
611
00:35:06,237 --> 00:35:07,261
I don't think so.
612
00:35:07,338 --> 00:35:10,399
You saw what happened
up there today. We got
three ofthose Zeros.
613
00:35:10,475 --> 00:35:11,771
They couldn't knock us down.
614
00:35:11,842 --> 00:35:15,210
You had 30 Zekes
up there, 30.
615
00:35:15,879 --> 00:35:18,075
Now yourgunners had
time to line up on them.
616
00:35:18,281 --> 00:35:19,976
But only six got through.
617
00:35:20,450 --> 00:35:21,678
Take away the air cover.
618
00:35:22,251 --> 00:35:24,379
And those gunners are
gonna get overwhelmed
619
00:35:24,453 --> 00:35:27,046
and your tin turkeys
are going down.
620
00:35:27,455 --> 00:35:28,979
They won't, Greg.
621
00:35:29,223 --> 00:35:31,089
And ifthey do,
622
00:35:32,059 --> 00:35:33,959
well that's worth
knowing, too.
623
00:35:37,231 --> 00:35:38,891
You're not going
up tomorrow.
624
00:35:39,131 --> 00:35:42,897
I'm going everyday, until
General Moore pulls me off.
625
00:35:43,135 --> 00:35:45,570
Now, you got a lot
of loyalty to General Moore.
626
00:35:45,705 --> 00:35:47,195
How did he manage it?
627
00:35:47,373 --> 00:35:48,841
He's got a better
left hook than you have.
628
00:36:04,290 --> 00:36:06,018
Looks like if we're
gonna fly today,
629
00:36:06,091 --> 00:36:07,490
we've gonna have
to shoot our way
into the cockpits.
630
00:36:07,559 --> 00:36:10,256
I guess, at a certain point,
it becomes pretty ridiculous.
631
00:36:10,328 --> 00:36:12,056
Okay, you guys,
go on back.
632
00:36:25,943 --> 00:36:27,342
General, I'd like
to go with you.
633
00:36:28,412 --> 00:36:29,402
Sure?
634
00:36:29,747 --> 00:36:31,715
You have an extra parachute
in that thing?
635
00:36:31,882 --> 00:36:32,906
Yeah, I think we do.
636
00:36:32,983 --> 00:36:34,109
I think I'm gonna need it.
637
00:36:34,385 --> 00:36:36,376
After you, sir.
638
00:37:51,996 --> 00:37:54,863
You better tell your guys
to be ready, General.
639
00:37:54,932 --> 00:37:57,026
We're coming into the Slot.

He's hit!

have to fly back

and this time they're gonna
be more Zekes waiting for us.

So let's get moving.
671
00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:39,639
If we don't get
there in time,
672
00:42:39,708 --> 00:42:41,608
all we're gonna see
is a bunch of iron floating
in the water.
673
00:42:50,619 --> 00:42:52,347
MAN 6:

676
00:43:39,032 --> 00:43:40,522

00:43:43,103 --> 00:43:44,763
Break left.

678
00:44:01,754 --> 00:44:04,018
(GRUNTING)
679
00:44:11,063 --> 00:44:13,998
That was wrong.
God help me, I'm killed.
680
00:45:18,964 --> 00:45:20,295
Here they are.
681
00:45:20,366 --> 00:45:21,629
Let's get in there.
682
00:45:21,700 --> 00:45:23,428

00:45:23,501 --> 00:45:25,229

NA VIGA TOR.' Roger.
688
00:47:16,311 --> 00:47:17,539
He's dead.
689
00:47:20,714 --> 00:47:23,081
It was one hell
of an experiment.
690
00:47:27,054 --> 00:47:29,113
I sure believed
in this plane.
691
00:47:30,391 --> 00:47:31,859
He fought for it.
692
00:47:34,161 --> 00:47:35,889
We were all so sure.
693
00:47:41,201 --> 00:47:43,362
What do we got
out here anyway?
694
00:47:46,605 --> 00:47:48,437
