00:23:28,842 --> 00:23:29,876
All right, all right.

348
00:23:31,811 --> 00:23:33,913
You remember when I told you
to get up to speed, and fast?

349
00:23:34,814 --> 00:23:36,750
I meant speedier and faster.

350
00:23:36,916 --> 00:23:38,752
Carrier quals are at
the end of the week.

351
00:23:38,918 --> 00:23:40,754
You can'’t land a Corsair
on the Leyte,

352
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,922
uh, you get yourself
a nice dry-land job in Topeka

353
00:23:43,123 --> 00:23:45,191
or some place even shittier,
God help you.

354
00:23:45,925 --> 00:23:46,926
Either way,

355
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,729
start settling up
your bar tab, boys.

356
00:23:50,730 --> 00:23:52,132
We are leaving Rhode Island.

357
00:23:52,298 --> 00:23:54,334
[pilot] Ah, here it comes.

358
00:23:59,339 --> 00:24:04,770
Just because I'’m going
doesn'’t mean I'’m fighting,
Daisy.

359
00:24:05,378 --> 00:24:06,446
[sighs]

360
00:24:13,530 --> 00:24:14,954
That'’s the deal, darling.

361
00:24:16,289 --> 00:24:17,290
Remember?

362
00:24:21,327 --> 00:24:22,896
We knew this day might come.

363
00:24:24,798 --> 00:24:27,330
And yet it doesn'’t
make it any easier.

364
00:24:38,178 --> 00:24:39,412
But we'’ll be okay.

365
00:24:43,249 --> 00:24:44,184
Mad...

366
00:24:44,351 --> 00:24:45,485
[chuckles]

367
00:24:46,886 --> 00:24:47,987
...but okay.

368
00:24:48,555 --> 00:24:49,622
Okay.

369
00:24:52,425 --> 00:24:55,610
[sighs]

370
00:24:57,964 --> 00:24:59,132
Jesse, what'’s going on?

371
00:24:59,933 --> 00:25:00,934
Honestly...

372
00:25:05,772 --> 00:25:08,141
My mind'’s on landing
that Corsair tomorrow.

373
00:25:10,410 --> 00:25:12,946
You never met a plane
you couldn'’t land, Jesse.

374
00:25:13,113 --> 00:25:16,416
This plane
will be the death of me.

375
00:25:16,583 --> 00:25:18,818
I can'’t see like I can
out of a Bearcat.

376
00:25:22,220 --> 00:25:23,256
Fogs my instincts.

377
00:25:27,727 --> 00:25:29,129
Your instincts...

378
00:25:30,663 --> 00:25:33,466
are one of the few things
in this world that I trust.

379
00:25:35,802 --> 00:25:37,237
And if you can'’t
trust that plane,

380
00:25:37,404 --> 00:25:39,439
you gotta put it in whatever
will get you down safe.

381
00:25:58,858 --> 00:25:59,859
Yes, ma'’am.

382
00:26:02,162 --> 00:26:04,197
-[Marty] You ready, Carol?
-[Carol] Try and keep up, Marty.

383
00:26:04,397 --> 00:26:06,332
[Bo] Bottom of the board
buys drinks tonight, boys.

384
00:26:06,499 --> 00:26:08,100
[Marty] I hope
you brought cash.

385
00:26:08,168 --> 00:26:09,636
[Bo] Won'’t need it,
we'’ll be spending yours.

386
00:26:09,836 --> 00:26:11,471
[door opens]

387
00:26:15,742 --> 00:26:16,776
[door closes]

388
00:26:38,365 --> 00:26:42,936
[breathes deeply]

389
00:27:00,453 --> 00:27:01,788
You ain'’t shit.

390
00:27:07,894 --> 00:27:09,629
[exhales]

391
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,202
You ain'’t never landing
that plane, nigger.

392
00:27:22,842 --> 00:27:23,910
Boy.

393
00:27:31,551 --> 00:27:34,354
Your monkey-***
shouldn'’t even be flying.

394
00:27:42,962 --> 00:27:43,963
[grunts]

395
00:27:46,990 --> 00:27:48,802
[breathes heavily]

396
00:27:54,507 --> 00:27:55,508
[grunts]

397
00:28:05,819 --> 00:28:06,853
[sniffles]

398
00:28:21,534 --> 00:28:25,839
[sniffles, breathes heavily]

399
00:28:52,298 --> 00:28:54,667
[officer on PA]
Flight ops commence,
flight ops commence.

400
00:28:54,868 --> 00:28:58,400
Be aware of all prop wash.
All hands on deck.

401
00:28:58,171 --> 00:28:59,372
[sailor] Don'’t need all hands.

402
00:28:59,572 --> 00:29:01,374
[sailor 2] Doing it!

403
00:29:01,574 --> 00:29:03,443
[officer on PA]
All repair parties,
man your stations.

404
00:29:03,610 --> 00:29:05,745
All repair parties,
man your stations.

405
00:29:05,912 --> 00:29:08,480
[crew shouting, chattering]

406
00:29:12,180 --> 00:29:14,187
[engine roaring]

407
00:29:22,662 --> 00:29:24,698
-[****] That'’s Hudner.
-[Carol] Mm-hmm.

408
00:29:31,271 --> 00:29:34,607
[officer on radio] You'’re on
a good approach, Hudner.
Just keep an eye on the LSO.

409
00:29:56,563 --> 00:29:57,497
[grunts]

410
00:29:59,699 --> 00:30:01,101
All right, pretty boy.

411
00:30:05,710 --> 00:30:07,107
[cable wobbles]

412
00:30:17,517 --> 00:30:20,153
All right, three-to-one
he misses it.

413
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,388
I'’ll take the action.

414
00:30:22,122 --> 00:30:23,590
Bonus if he splashes?

415
00:30:23,757 --> 00:30:25,825
[chuckles]
Christ, Bo,
we don'’t want him dead.

416
00:30:26,593 --> 00:30:29,329
[landing gear whirs]

417
00:30:42,175 --> 00:30:44,844
Looks like they wanna see
Jackie Robinson steal home.

418
00:30:54,540 --> 00:30:56,456
[officer on radio]
Ensign Brown, you'’re too high.

419
00:30:57,490 --> 00:30:58,892
That'’s a shit approach.

420
00:31:14,574 --> 00:31:16,476
Come on. Get your nose up.

421
00:31:19,790 --> 00:31:21,140
Why isn'’t he listening
to the LSO?

422
00:31:25,218 --> 00:31:26,753
[grunts]

423
00:31:29,456 --> 00:31:31,191
[engine roars]

424
00:31:33,626 --> 00:31:35,950
[all shout]Geez!

425
00:31:35,295 --> 00:31:36,363
[all shout]

426
00:31:38,398 --> 00:31:40,333
[grunts]

427
00:31:40,500 --> 00:31:42,936
[officer on radio]
That was pretty close, Brown.
Do you wanna call it?

428
00:31:43,103 --> 00:31:44,738
I'’m coming back around.

429
00:31:47,741 --> 00:31:49,809
[officer on PA]
Crash crew, stand by.

430
00:31:55,115 --> 00:31:57,317
[breathes heavily]

431
00:31:59,986 --> 00:32:02,880
[officer on radio]
You'’re still too high, Brown.

432
00:32:10,663 --> 00:32:12,980
You'’re not in the groove.

433
00:32:12,699 --> 00:32:13,700
I'’ll get there.

434
00:32:28,715 --> 00:32:29,783
[grunts]

435
00:32:36,523 --> 00:32:38,892
[engine roars]

436
00:32:48,702 --> 00:32:51,304
[cable wobbles]

437
00:32:52,380 --> 00:32:53,106
[exhales]

438
00:32:54,700 --> 00:32:55,175
[all cheer]

439
00:32:56,420 --> 00:32:57,143
All right, Jesse.

440
00:32:57,977 --> 00:32:59,312
[sailor] Attaboy!

441
00:32:59,479 --> 00:33:01,681
[officer on PA]
Attention, all hands.

442
00:33:01,848 --> 00:33:03,883
Flight operations
commence in one hour.

443
00:33:04,500 --> 00:33:07,320
FOD walk in 15 mikes.
All available hands on deck.

444
00:33:07,487 --> 00:33:09,622
FOD walk in 15 mikes.

445
00:33:09,823 --> 00:33:12,726
Doesn'’t matter how you did it.
Just matters that
you got down, pal.

446
00:33:13,827 --> 00:33:15,395
[****] Fellas,

447
00:33:16,463 --> 00:33:17,831
you all passed
your carrier quals.

448
00:33:17,997 --> 00:33:19,332
[all cheer]

449
00:33:19,499 --> 00:33:20,500
[pilot] That'’s what
I'’m talking about.

450
00:33:20,700 --> 00:33:22,302
Top marks go to...Yeah.

451
00:33:22,469 --> 00:33:24,704
Lieutenant Hudner
with the only
perfect grade.

452
00:33:24,871 --> 00:33:25,939
Oh, *******.

453
00:33:26,139 --> 00:33:28,800
Which brings us
to Ensign Brown.

454
00:33:28,174 --> 00:33:30,910
D-N-K-U-A!

455
00:33:31,770 --> 00:33:33,613
[all]
Damn near killed us all.

456
00:33:33,780 --> 00:33:37,170
[****] Enjoy tonight, boys.
We ship out in the morning.

457
00:33:37,183 --> 00:33:39,219
And now is the time,
if you haven'’t already,

458
00:33:39,419 --> 00:33:40,653
get all your affairs
in order.

459
00:33:42,188 --> 00:33:43,223
All right.

460
00:33:46,260 --> 00:33:48,194
[pilot] What affairs
do you have to get in order,
my friend?

461
00:33:49,596 --> 00:33:50,897
[pilot 2] I'’m headed
to Denver, boys.

462
00:33:51,731 --> 00:33:53,233
That was some landing.

463
00:33:53,433 --> 00:33:55,969
[pilot 3] I'’m never
too drunk to drive.

464
00:33:56,169 --> 00:33:57,871
Just trying to
keep it interesting.

465
00:34:01,307 --> 00:34:02,609
You get your car fixed yet?

466
00:34:09,683 --> 00:34:11,384
You heading to the bar
with the guys?

467
00:34:12,218 --> 00:34:13,253
I don'’t think so.

468
00:34:17,390 --> 00:34:18,358
[clears throat]

469
00:34:18,992 --> 00:34:20,600
Wanna come in?

470
00:34:27,801 --> 00:34:29,235
[engine stops]

471
00:34:34,974 --> 00:34:36,760
Hey, Daisy?

472
00:34:36,643 --> 00:34:37,811
Yes?

473
00:34:37,977 --> 00:34:38,978
[door closes]

474
00:34:43,383 --> 00:34:44,584
What did I tell you?

475
00:34:48,421 --> 00:34:49,456
Yes, ma'’am.

476
00:34:50,590 --> 00:34:51,825
[child] Mommy?

477
00:34:51,991 --> 00:34:52,892
Oh.

478
00:34:53,930 --> 00:34:54,994
Let me get her.Okay.

479
00:34:58,398 --> 00:35:00,333
Nice to see you again.You as well.

480
00:35:06,740 --> 00:35:09,309
[mumbles]

481
00:35:09,476 --> 00:35:10,610
Which one do you like?

482
00:35:12,846 --> 00:35:13,847
The blue one?

483
00:35:14,914 --> 00:35:15,915
The gray one?

484
00:35:18,485 --> 00:35:19,552
The gray one.

485
00:35:21,588 --> 00:35:23,356
You had a good day?Mm-hmm.

486
00:35:23,556 --> 00:35:24,891
Yeah?Uh-huh.

487
00:35:25,580 --> 00:35:26,590
What'’d you do?

488
00:35:27,594 --> 00:35:28,995
You don'’t remember?

489
00:35:29,162 --> 00:35:30,163
Here you are.

490
00:35:31,731 --> 00:35:33,299
Thought Jesse didn'’t drink.

491
00:35:33,466 --> 00:35:34,501
He doesn'’t.

492
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:37,370
[chuckles]

493
00:35:41,410 --> 00:35:42,509
Your husband'’s
quite the aviator.

494
00:35:42,709 --> 00:35:44,644
Well, he must feel
the same way about you.

495
00:35:44,811 --> 00:35:45,945
Because you
and Carol Mohring

496
00:35:46,146 --> 00:35:47,614
are the only boys
from Fighting 32

497
00:35:47,781 --> 00:35:49,249
that he has ever
invited over.

498
00:35:50,483 --> 00:35:52,352
It'’s good to know the men
you'’re flying with.

499
00:35:53,219 --> 00:35:54,821
See what they'’re fighting for.

500
00:35:56,189 --> 00:35:57,190
I like that.

501
00:35:59,659 --> 00:36:02,729
And what about you, Tom?
What are you fighting for?

502
00:36:02,896 --> 00:36:05,598
God, country
and honor aside.

503
00:36:05,765 --> 00:36:07,167
You know, Mrs. Brown, I'’m...

504
00:36:08,368 --> 00:36:09,636
hoping to find that out.

505
00:36:09,803 --> 00:36:11,204
[Jesse laughs]

506
00:36:11,371 --> 00:36:12,405
Come on.

507
00:36:12,605 --> 00:36:15,175
-Come on.
-[child] Okay.

508
00:36:15,342 --> 00:36:18,111
Don'’t be fooled
by his strong,
silent act, by the way.

509
00:36:18,278 --> 00:36:19,346
He trusts you,

510
00:36:20,613 --> 00:36:22,849
I swear,
he'’s the funniest man
you'’ll ever know.

511
00:36:24,351 --> 00:36:26,986
I can'’t say he'’s shown me
that side yet.Mm-hmm.

512
00:36:27,187 --> 00:36:29,756
Something to
look forward to.
[chuckles]

513
00:36:29,923 --> 00:36:32,659
Well, you'’re about to spend
a lot of time together.

514
00:36:33,626 --> 00:36:35,228
Lot of time
in very small spaces.

515
00:36:43,300 --> 00:36:44,437
May I ask you a favor?

516
00:36:45,572 --> 00:36:46,673
Of course.

517
00:36:48,975 --> 00:36:51,678
Second he steps on that ship
and into that plane,

518
00:36:52,645 --> 00:36:54,414
I can'’t protect him anymore.

519
00:36:54,581 --> 00:36:56,549
So I need you to be there
for my Jesse.

520
00:36:57,851 --> 00:36:58,852
Okay?

521
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:03,390
Okay.

522
00:37:05,258 --> 00:37:06,393
Okay.

523
00:37:06,559 --> 00:37:07,594
[Jesse] Good?

524
00:37:08,795 --> 00:37:10,563
-[child] Hmm.
-[Jesse] That was good, yeah?

525
00:37:10,730 --> 00:37:11,831
Uh-huh.Mm-hmm.

526
00:37:11,998 --> 00:37:13,233
[Daisy chuckles]

527
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:14,601
Who is this?

528
00:37:15,735 --> 00:37:18,271
This is Pam.

529
00:37:19,906 --> 00:37:21,107
Hi, Pam.

530
00:37:22,308 --> 00:37:26,179
[mimics airplane]

531
00:37:28,448 --> 00:37:30,316
I don'’t think
she wants to embarrass
you, Lieutenant.

532
00:37:30,483 --> 00:37:31,451
[Daisy chuckles]

533
00:37:31,618 --> 00:37:33,253
It'’s too late. Come on.

534
00:37:34,754 --> 00:37:36,690
She might hold the stick
better than you.Okay.

535
00:37:36,856 --> 00:37:38,124
[chuckles]

536
00:37:38,291 --> 00:37:40,427
Well, I know
it'’s our last night here,

537
00:37:40,593 --> 00:37:43,463
so I'’ll let you all
enjoy it together.
Thank you again for the drink.

538
00:37:43,630 --> 00:37:45,699
You'’re very welcome.I'’ll walk ya out.

539
00:38:06,586 --> 00:38:08,188
Just be careful.

540
00:38:09,522 --> 00:38:12,325
Worst thing
that can happen to me
is a bad sunburn.

541
00:38:12,492 --> 00:38:15,161
You come back as black
as you like,
as long as you come home.

542
00:38:18,164 --> 00:38:20,233
'’Cause you'’re taking me
to The Bahamas
when you get back.

543
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:21,501
Bahamas?

544
00:38:21,668 --> 00:38:23,690
If I get some shore time,

545
00:38:23,236 --> 00:38:26,106
I'’ll get you one of
those European swimsuits.

546
00:38:26,973 --> 00:38:29,743
One of those
two-piece things.

547
00:38:41,921 --> 00:38:42,922
Tootie...

548
00:38:45,258 --> 00:38:47,627
you know you can always
come back here and wave to me.

549
00:38:50,263 --> 00:38:54,234
I'’m only 5,000 miles
that way.[chuckles]

550
00:38:56,970 --> 00:38:59,539
I'’ll wave back.Mm-hmm.

551
00:39:03,677 --> 00:39:05,145
The only person I ever met

552
00:39:07,130 --> 00:39:08,248
belonged in the sky.

553
00:39:12,352 --> 00:39:14,954
Just remember you belong
down here with us, too, okay?

554
00:39:25,565 --> 00:39:27,734
[sighs]

555
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,975
I'’ll write you
every week.Mm-hmm.

556
00:39:37,177 --> 00:39:38,812
I know you will.

557
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:41,548
[sighs]

558
00:40:14,140 --> 00:40:15,782
[all panting]

559
00:40:42,308 --> 00:40:43,810
[sailor] Break those
chains down.

560
00:41:06,199 --> 00:41:08,368
[officer on PA]
Secure from General Quarters.
All hands!

561
00:41:08,535 --> 00:41:10,103
Secure from General Quarters.

562
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,110
Maybe you'’d be faster
if we did this in the middle
of the night.

563
00:41:17,277 --> 00:41:18,545
What you don'’t
seem to understand

564
00:41:18,712 --> 00:41:20,680
is that someday soon,
this is gonna be real.

565
00:41:20,847 --> 00:41:23,830
And you have to do
a hell of a lot better
than that!

566
00:41:23,249 --> 00:41:25,218
[all] Yes, sir.

567
00:41:26,653 --> 00:41:27,787
All right.

568
00:41:27,954 --> 00:41:29,689
[sailor] I gotta
run him down to 2-A.

569
00:41:29,856 --> 00:41:31,825
I am getting tired
of getting ready.

570
00:41:31,991 --> 00:41:34,600
Tired of living in this
floating sardine can.

571
00:41:34,227 --> 00:41:35,695
Tired of you
smelling like one.

572
00:41:35,862 --> 00:41:37,130
That'’s what
men smell like.

573
00:41:37,297 --> 00:41:39,990
Something to look forward to
one day, Fritz.

574
00:41:39,265 --> 00:41:40,834
Most excitement
we'’ve seen in days.

575
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,435
[Captain Sisson]
Ensign Brown.

576
00:41:44,104 --> 00:41:45,872
Could I speak to you
for a moment?

577
00:41:46,720 --> 00:41:47,974
Careful what you wish for.

578
00:41:48,141 --> 00:41:49,809
[sailor] I'’ll go ahead
and respot it.

579
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:53,130
Aye, sir.

580
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:54,948
Huh.

581
00:42:01,554 --> 00:42:02,555
[camera pops]

582
00:42:06,826 --> 00:42:08,628
Do we have to do this
above deck?

583
00:42:08,828 --> 00:42:11,431
Oh, yeah.
It'’s great having you
right in front of your plane.

584
00:42:11,598 --> 00:42:12,599
Relax.
You look great.

585
00:42:13,299 --> 00:42:14,534
[Tom] What'’s going on?

586
00:42:14,701 --> 00:42:16,603
[****] Lifemagazine is here.

587
00:42:16,770 --> 00:42:19,305
I guess the Pentagon wanted
something positive for
the folks back home.

588
00:42:19,472 --> 00:42:22,842
Help '’em swallow the pill
of another potential war.

589
00:42:23,900 --> 00:42:25,445
What better way than,
"Black man makes good?"

590
00:42:25,612 --> 00:42:28,214
He does makes
a nice trophy boy.
You ought to be proud, Skip.

591
00:42:29,749 --> 00:42:32,152
Shut up, Bo.

592
00:42:32,318 --> 00:42:35,722
[journalist] Your commanding
officer called you one of the
best pilots he'’s ever seen,

593
00:42:35,889 --> 00:42:37,223
regardless of color.

594
00:42:37,424 --> 00:42:39,192
[officer on PA]
Flight checks and FOD walks

595
00:42:39,359 --> 00:42:41,294
for fixed-wing
and rotary aircraft
must be documented.

596
00:42:43,296 --> 00:42:45,799
That'’s kind of him to say,
but I can'’t say I'’m special.

597
00:42:45,999 --> 00:42:48,234
Well,
it must be hard, right?

598
00:42:48,435 --> 00:42:49,602
It must be hard
being the only--

599
00:42:49,769 --> 00:42:52,472
A naval aviator? Absolutely.

600
00:42:52,639 --> 00:42:55,208
Landing planes on carriers,
it'’s the--

601
00:42:55,375 --> 00:42:58,440
it'’s the toughest job there is
for anyone wearing wings.

602
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:03,750
[officer on PA]
Heavy maintenance visit

603
00:43:03,917 --> 00:43:05,652
will be performed
in all aircraft...

604
00:43:05,819 --> 00:43:07,754
Come on, Ensign Brown.
You know what I mean.Jesse'’s fine.

605
00:43:07,921 --> 00:43:09,456
Okay, Jesse.

606
00:43:09,622 --> 00:43:11,391
There'’s a lot of guys
from different backgrounds,

607
00:43:11,591 --> 00:43:12,926
but there'’s only one you.

608
00:43:13,930 --> 00:43:14,694
There'’s only
one you, too, sir.
[chuckles]

609
00:43:15,795 --> 00:43:17,897
Look, I mean no disrespect,

610
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,167
but I don'’t think I'’m gonna say
what you'’re looking
for me to say.

611
00:43:22,702 --> 00:43:23,803
All right.

612
00:43:23,970 --> 00:43:25,105
I worked hard
to fly these planes.

613
00:43:25,271 --> 00:43:26,673
It'’s all I'’ve ever wanted to do.

614
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,608
Harder than I can
put into words.[****] Jesse.

615
00:43:28,775 --> 00:43:30,944
Can we get
a few more pictures
of Jesse in his plane?

616
00:43:31,111 --> 00:43:32,345
I gotta get my pilots
back to work.

617
00:43:32,512 --> 00:43:34,180
It'’ll just take
a minute, Lieutenant.

618
00:43:34,347 --> 00:43:36,116
Lieutenant Commander.
Have a nice day.

619
00:43:36,282 --> 00:43:37,517
[sailor]
Watch your back!

620
00:43:38,718 --> 00:43:40,820
Damn, Jesse. You just put
a letter in the mail.

621
00:43:40,987 --> 00:43:42,856
One a week.

622
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:44,424
That'’s what I told her.

623
00:43:44,624 --> 00:43:46,192
[Carol] It'’s no use trying
to slow him down.

624
00:43:46,359 --> 00:43:48,610
[chattering]

625
00:43:48,228 --> 00:43:50,497
Hey, we caught
your little circus act
up on deck.

626
00:43:50,663 --> 00:43:51,965
[chuckling]

627
00:43:52,132 --> 00:43:53,633
Your boy juggle, too?
Or...

628
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:55,535
[shoes tap]

629
00:43:55,702 --> 00:43:56,803
[laughs]

630
00:44:22,696 --> 00:44:23,596
[scoffs]

631
00:44:23,763 --> 00:44:24,898
[laughs]

632
00:44:26,299 --> 00:44:27,534
Guess not.

633
00:44:29,536 --> 00:44:32,238
[marine scoffs]
Well. Nice.

634
00:44:35,410 --> 00:44:37,143
We should have
stood up to
that ***hole.

635
00:44:38,478 --> 00:44:39,913
[Jesse] I'’m good, Tom.

636
00:44:47,721 --> 00:44:50,457
Look, I'’m just saying
we shouldn'’t be letting
him run his mouth like that.

637
00:45:18,485 --> 00:45:19,486
[Carol sighs]

638
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:28,361
[****] Now, I know
that you'’re all sick
of doing busywork,

639
00:45:28,528 --> 00:45:31,631
but, oh, have I
got a chore for
a lucky someone.

640
00:45:31,798 --> 00:45:33,366
Not it.Maintenance has replaced

641
00:45:33,533 --> 00:45:34,968
a gyro on one of the Corsairs,

642
00:45:35,168 --> 00:45:36,903
I need a volunteer to
make sure all is working.

643
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:38,805
It'’s just a quick
up and down.I thought you said "lucky."

644
00:45:38,972 --> 00:45:40,507
It sounds like
a hoot.

645
00:45:40,674 --> 00:45:42,750
Why don'’t we
give it to Fritz?

646
00:45:42,909 --> 00:45:44,344
He could use the landing.

647
00:45:44,511 --> 00:45:46,513
[all chuckling]I'’ll do it.

648
00:45:47,247 --> 00:45:48,248
[****] All right.

649
00:45:49,482 --> 00:45:50,550
Actually,

650
00:45:50,750 --> 00:45:51,918
if you don'’t mind,
Lieutenant,

651
00:45:53,420 --> 00:45:54,554
Lavery'’s right for once.

652
00:45:54,754 --> 00:45:55,522
'’Course I'’m right.

653
00:45:55,689 --> 00:45:57,223
I could use the trap.

654
00:45:58,910 --> 00:45:59,325
All yours.

655
00:45:59,492 --> 00:46:00,660
Heil Herr Mohring!

656
00:46:00,827 --> 00:46:02,529
[****] Mohring it is.[Marty] All right.

657
00:46:02,696 --> 00:46:05,980
All right, now as for
the rest of you,

658
00:46:05,265 --> 00:46:06,800
command has
ordered an audit

659
00:46:06,966 --> 00:46:09,803
on serial numbers
on parts across
all of the planes.

660
00:46:09,969 --> 00:46:12,105
So while Mohring is
up there enjoying
the sightseeing,

661
00:46:12,272 --> 00:46:15,575
the rest of you can
validate all of
the serial numbers

662
00:46:15,775 --> 00:46:17,977
on every single one of
these maintenance orders.

663
00:46:18,144 --> 00:46:20,580
[all groaning]Thank you, Matthew.

664
00:46:20,780 --> 00:46:22,248
Yeah.[Bo] Uh, sir?

665
00:46:22,415 --> 00:46:23,817
That'’ll take all day.

666
00:46:23,983 --> 00:46:25,518
Only if you work quick.

667
00:46:45,138 --> 00:46:46,306
[flight officer]
Ensign Mohring,

668
00:46:46,473 --> 00:46:47,807
you are clear
to test the gyro.

669
00:47:10,563 --> 00:47:12,132
2-17 to tower.

670
00:47:12,298 --> 00:47:13,767
Gyro seems to be
in working order.

671
00:47:13,933 --> 00:47:15,402
[flight officer]
Copy that.
Return to carrier.

672
00:47:30,517 --> 00:47:32,519
Ensign Mohring,
your approach is shallow.

673
00:47:33,620 --> 00:47:34,721
I'’m correcting.

674
00:47:36,790 --> 00:47:38,158
Manufacture number?

675
00:47:41,940 --> 00:47:44,970
"P-5-5-1-8-4."

676
00:47:49,202 --> 00:47:50,337
What is it?

677
00:47:59,212 --> 00:48:00,213
[breathing heavily]

678
00:48:01,247 --> 00:48:02,449
[Jesse] Not gonna
make the deck.

679
00:48:02,615 --> 00:48:03,683
[Tom] He'’ll make it.

680
00:48:03,883 --> 00:48:05,251
Just gotta slowly
pour on the power.

681
00:48:05,452 --> 00:48:06,786
On this approach?

682
00:48:09,923 --> 00:48:11,257
Better to wave off.

683
00:48:11,958 --> 00:48:13,360
Try again.

684
00:48:13,526 --> 00:48:15,995
[flight officer on PA]
Crash crew, stand by.

685
00:48:16,196 --> 00:48:17,397
Crash crew, stand by.

686
00:48:17,564 --> 00:48:18,765
[crew 3] Man your station.

687
00:48:21,935 --> 00:48:23,970
Out of the way.
Coming in.

688
00:48:24,637 --> 00:48:25,638
[inhales sharply]

689
00:48:28,708 --> 00:48:30,977
[flight officer on radio]
You'’re still low, Mohring.

690
00:48:35,281 --> 00:48:37,384
[crew chattering]

691
00:48:39,586 --> 00:48:40,820
Go around, pal.

692
00:48:42,355 --> 00:48:43,690
Ease it on, Mohring.

693
00:48:48,528 --> 00:48:50,597
[flight officer]
Ensign Mohring,
give me some altitude.

694
00:48:52,165 --> 00:48:53,666
[grunts] No, no, no, no, no!

695
00:48:54,868 --> 00:48:56,360
[crashes]

696
00:48:56,236 --> 00:48:57,671
[grunts][crew 5] He'’s in the water.

697
00:48:57,837 --> 00:48:59,739
[crew 6] Man overboard![crew 7] Get your vest pack!

698
00:48:59,939 --> 00:49:00,974
[crew 8] We need rescue!

699
00:49:01,141 --> 00:49:02,809
Poured on the power
too damn fast.

700
00:49:02,976 --> 00:49:04,377
[alarm blaring]

701
00:49:04,544 --> 00:49:06,680
[crash crew shouting]

702
00:49:11,551 --> 00:49:13,253
[crew] Let'’s go, let'’s go!

703
00:49:14,187 --> 00:49:15,422
[crew 8] Do we pull him out?

704
00:49:15,588 --> 00:49:16,723
[alarm continues]

705
00:49:37,844 --> 00:49:40,747
Some people are gonna
tell you that this is
what you signed up for.

706
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:43,490
It'’s not.

707
00:49:44,617 --> 00:49:46,190
Let'’s be real clear.

708
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:48,421
We lost a friend.

709
00:49:48,588 --> 00:49:49,789
And that is not easy.

710
00:49:50,323 --> 00:49:51,358
Now,

711
00:49:52,425 --> 00:49:54,327
the Navy'’s gonna do
what the Navy does.

712
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:55,929
But, um...

713
00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:57,497
I'’ll write his family.

714
00:50:06,806 --> 00:50:08,441
Send them his things.

715
00:50:24,900 --> 00:50:25,191
[sighs]

716
00:50:29,896 --> 00:50:31,331
The guys are getting together.

717
00:50:49,482 --> 00:50:50,784
Just because you think
you know better

718
00:50:50,950 --> 00:50:52,919
doesn'’t mean you
have to say anything.

719
00:50:55,288 --> 00:50:57,424
What are you talking about?[sniffles]

720
00:50:57,624 --> 00:50:59,626
Carol hadn'’t been
in the water
five seconds

721
00:50:59,793 --> 00:51:01,961
before you were
talking about what
he could'’ve done better.

722
00:51:02,128 --> 00:51:03,930
We all make mistakes.
That could'’ve been me,
that--

723
00:51:07,434 --> 00:51:10,300
Don'’t let that ring
convince you otherwise.

724
00:51:10,170 --> 00:51:12,138
What'’s the one thing
they told us about
the Corsair?

725
00:51:12,305 --> 00:51:13,973
Remind me.
What'’d they tell us
about the Corsair?

726
00:51:14,140 --> 00:51:15,442
You can'’t punch
the throttle.

727
00:51:15,642 --> 00:51:17,577
Mistakes get
us killed, Jesse.

728
00:51:21,448 --> 00:51:23,383
You don'’t die
if you do
what you'’re told.

729
00:51:25,185 --> 00:51:26,286
[Marty] Fellas.

730
00:51:28,521 --> 00:51:29,856
You coming?

731
00:51:40,567 --> 00:51:41,835
To Carol.

732
00:52:18,738 --> 00:52:21,740
[Tom]
We'’re not even at war,
and we'’re losing men.

733
00:52:22,308 --> 00:52:23,576
Good men.

734
00:52:26,780 --> 00:52:27,947
It'’s just a
tough pill to swallow

735
00:52:28,148 --> 00:52:29,616
when there'’s
nothing to blame.

736
00:52:35,655 --> 00:52:37,724
The swim test
in flight school...

737
00:52:44,664 --> 00:52:46,666
They made me do it ten times.

738
00:52:53,373 --> 00:52:55,675
Didn'’t believe that
a nigger could swim.

739
00:52:58,780 --> 00:52:59,746
They dumped ice in the water.

740
00:53:03,183 --> 00:53:04,918
Put weights
in my flight suit.

741
00:53:08,621 --> 00:53:09,823
Held me under.

742
00:53:14,427 --> 00:53:16,763
They wouldn'’t have cared
if I died in that pool.

743
00:53:19,933 --> 00:53:21,401
But every time...

744
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:25,105
I made it out.

745
00:53:36,416 --> 00:53:39,886
Got used to flying
the Bearcat. [chuckles]

746
00:53:42,222 --> 00:53:43,323
See everything.

747
00:53:44,157 --> 00:53:45,525
The deck on approach.

748
00:53:46,993 --> 00:53:48,895
[sniffles] All right
in front of me.

749
00:53:49,950 --> 00:53:51,798
I could land it on
my front yard if I had to.

750
00:53:58,338 --> 00:53:59,539
But the Corsair...

751
00:54:06,446 --> 00:54:07,814
I can'’t see anything.

752
00:54:10,850 --> 00:54:12,452
You have to
rely on the LSO.

753
00:54:13,486 --> 00:54:14,888
[Jesse] Hard to believe
that the LSO

754
00:54:15,550 --> 00:54:17,424
won'’t crash my Black ***
on purpose.

755
00:54:22,128 --> 00:54:23,263
I can'’t tell you
how many times

756
00:54:23,430 --> 00:54:25,165
people have told me
to give up, quit.

757
00:54:26,332 --> 00:54:27,467
Die, even.

758
00:54:30,370 --> 00:54:33,139
That'’s why you can'’t always
do what you'’re told.

759
00:54:37,430 --> 00:54:39,450
If I did, I wouldn'’t be here.

760
00:54:43,450 --> 00:54:44,484
[sighs]

761
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,756
That'’s something
I was trying to teach Mohring.

762
00:54:56,896 --> 00:54:57,897
[sniffles]

763
00:55:23,923 --> 00:55:25,580
[****] You guys are tired.

764
00:55:25,225 --> 00:55:27,360
I see it. Hell, I am, too.

765
00:55:27,527 --> 00:55:28,895
Been a rough few weeks.

766
00:55:30,397 --> 00:55:32,665
Fortunately,
we are docking in Cannes

767
00:55:32,832 --> 00:55:34,401
for a little shore leave.

768
00:55:34,567 --> 00:55:36,202
Now,
I don'’t know about you,

769
00:55:36,369 --> 00:55:38,400
but I think
some fresh air would
do all of us some good.

770
00:55:38,204 --> 00:55:40,807
[pilot whistles]Obviously, ship rules
follow you ashore.

771
00:55:40,974 --> 00:55:42,676
Liberty expires at 2300.[chuckles]

772
00:55:42,842 --> 00:55:45,645
You are foreigners
in a foreign city,
and you look the part.

773
00:55:45,812 --> 00:55:47,914
So please, Marty,
please, dear God,

774
00:55:48,810 --> 00:55:50,116
don'’t do anything stupid.Mm-hmm.

775
00:55:50,283 --> 00:55:52,352
Oh, and, uh, no,
I don'’t wanna come with you

776
00:55:52,519 --> 00:55:54,870
and do whatever is it
that you'’re gonna do,

777
00:55:54,254 --> 00:55:55,288
but thank you.[chuckles]

778
00:55:55,455 --> 00:55:56,990
Go away.

779
00:55:57,157 --> 00:55:59,259
[big band music playing]

780
00:55:59,426 --> 00:56:00,960
[chattering]

781
00:56:02,462 --> 00:56:05,365
Don'’t let Cevoli
catch you selling
those to the locals.

782
00:56:05,532 --> 00:56:07,330
Let me tell you something.

783
00:56:07,233 --> 00:56:10,103
I'’ve been in the Navy
since I was 16.

784
00:56:10,270 --> 00:56:12,572
And our line of work
is a dangerous one.

785
00:56:12,739 --> 00:56:14,274
One where tomorrow
is never promised.

786
00:56:14,441 --> 00:56:16,376
Hell, tomorrow'’s barely
a gentleman'’s agreement.

787
00:56:17,577 --> 00:56:20,280
So if there'’s liberty
to be had... [chuckles]

788
00:56:20,447 --> 00:56:22,282
...then liberty
we should take.

789
00:56:23,450 --> 00:56:25,251
At two dollars a pack,
I'’ll take a risk.

790
00:56:27,954 --> 00:56:29,889
Let'’s enjoy ourselves, boys.

791
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:31,291
Mohring would insist.

792
00:56:32,158 --> 00:56:33,727
When in France.

793
00:56:33,893 --> 00:56:35,862
There he is.Tom.

794
00:56:49,476 --> 00:56:51,711
[sailor 1] Don'’t do anything
I wouldn'’t do, sailor.

795
00:57:02,288 --> 00:57:03,323
[Marty] What
do we have here?

796
00:57:03,490 --> 00:57:04,657
Hello.

797
00:57:04,858 --> 00:57:06,292
[Bo] At the Boulevard
de la Croissant.

798
00:57:06,459 --> 00:57:08,628
Few too many sailors
on this street.

799
00:57:08,795 --> 00:57:10,730
[Bo] Doesn'’t look like
a street with
a *****house on it.

800
00:57:10,897 --> 00:57:12,766
[chuckling] No.[Marty] You don'’t have
enough scratch or game

801
00:57:12,932 --> 00:57:14,667
for these fine European women.

802
00:57:14,868 --> 00:57:17,370
Hey, I'’m here to drink,
so just point me
in that direction.

803
00:57:17,537 --> 00:57:19,506
Oh, to the first bar
we find, then.

804
00:57:19,673 --> 00:57:21,641
You guys go ahead.

805
00:57:21,808 --> 00:57:23,610
I gotta find something
for Daisy.

806
00:57:25,545 --> 00:57:27,180
I'’ll catch up.All right.

807
00:57:27,347 --> 00:57:29,883
Hey, don'’t forget
the, uh, lacy bits.

808
00:57:30,500 --> 00:57:31,317
Funny.

809
00:57:32,352 --> 00:57:33,820
[biker speaking French]

810
00:57:38,958 --> 00:57:40,794
[beachgoers chattering]

811
00:57:42,962 --> 00:57:44,464
[child speaking French]

812
00:58:09,155 --> 00:58:10,423
What'’s going on?

813
00:58:10,590 --> 00:58:12,559
Are you blind?
It'’s Liz Taylor.

814
00:58:12,726 --> 00:58:14,260
The movie star.
Where the hell have you been?

815
00:58:14,427 --> 00:58:15,595
[laughs] I'’d like that.

816
00:58:15,795 --> 00:58:16,730
Miss Taylor.Mmm.

817
00:58:16,930 --> 00:58:18,640
Would you sign
my postcard?

818
00:58:18,231 --> 00:58:20,233
Oh, I don'’t do
signatures, darling.

819
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:21,935
But I'’ll
give you a kiss.

820
00:58:22,102 --> 00:58:23,269
[chuckles]

821
00:58:24,804 --> 00:58:26,600
Thank you, Mrs. Taylor.

822
00:58:26,172 --> 00:58:27,240
And who'’s your friend?

823
00:58:27,807 --> 00:58:29,142
He ain'’t with me.

824
00:58:29,309 --> 00:58:31,945
Ensign Jesse Brown, ma'’am.

825
00:58:34,247 --> 00:58:35,582
I'’m a naval aviator.

826
00:58:35,749 --> 00:58:37,817
Oh, they let colored folks
be pilots these days?

827
00:58:38,518 --> 00:58:39,519
It would appear so.

828
00:58:39,686 --> 00:58:41,210
Well, how enlightened.

829
00:58:41,187 --> 00:58:42,455
Liz?

830
00:58:43,957 --> 00:58:45,592
I have to run, dear,

831
00:58:45,759 --> 00:58:48,395
but you and your wingmen
should join us
at the casino later.

832
00:58:48,561 --> 00:58:49,863
I like pilots.

833
00:58:50,563 --> 00:58:51,765
Miss Elizabeth?

834
00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:55,135
I'’m sure
you'’ve noticed, but--

835
00:58:55,301 --> 00:58:56,736
You just wear
something smart,

836
00:58:56,903 --> 00:58:59,739
and you tell them
Elizabeth invited you.

837
00:59:06,713 --> 00:59:08,140
[chuckles]

838
00:59:09,549 --> 00:59:11,284
[chattering in French]

839
00:59:12,452 --> 00:59:13,920
You'’re thinking it.[chuckles]

840
00:59:15,755 --> 00:59:16,923
Ah, look who it is.

841
00:59:18,580 --> 00:59:19,250
Get something nice
for Daisy?

842
00:59:19,192 --> 00:59:20,927
Yeah, got something else, too.

843
00:59:21,127 --> 00:59:23,730
I was invited to
the Casino de Carlo
this evening.

844
00:59:23,897 --> 00:59:25,432
We all were, actually.

845
00:59:27,367 --> 00:59:29,302
By Elizabeth Taylor.[Bo] You'’re shitting me.

846
00:59:29,469 --> 00:59:30,570
Wait, Liz Taylor,
the actress?

847
00:59:30,737 --> 00:59:31,805
How? Where?

848
00:59:32,500 --> 00:59:34,400
How? Met her.
Where? At the beach.

849
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:36,900
Nice lady, actually.

850
00:59:36,176 --> 00:59:37,877
[laughs]I don'’t believe you.

851
00:59:38,745 --> 00:59:39,946
But I got
some money to blow.

852
00:59:40,113 --> 00:59:41,214
Let'’s see if you'’re lying.

853
00:59:41,381 --> 00:59:42,615
[Bo] Now we'’re talking.

854
00:59:42,782 --> 00:59:44,451
Put up or shut up.

855
00:59:53,827 --> 00:59:54,894
Fellas.

856
00:59:57,697 --> 00:59:58,598
Let'’s get dressed. Whoo!

857
00:59:58,765 --> 01:00:00,500
[Bill] Wow.

858
01:00:09,209 --> 01:00:12,612
Now, I know y'’all are used
to getting turned down,
but I ain'’t.

859
01:00:12,779 --> 01:00:14,914
If we don'’t get in,
doubt this is
the only place in town.

860
01:00:15,810 --> 01:00:17,500
Yeah, but this is the only
place with Liz Taylor.

861
01:00:17,217 --> 01:00:18,551
Allegedly.

862
01:00:18,718 --> 01:00:20,854
[speaking French]

863
01:00:21,540 --> 01:00:22,355
We were invited.

864
01:00:23,356 --> 01:00:25,725
I am certain
you were not.

865
01:00:28,862 --> 01:00:30,864
Elizabeth Taylor.
I believe she--Please, sir,

866
01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:33,990
leave now.Jesse.

867
01:00:35,101 --> 01:00:37,504
It'’s okay.
We'’ll go find somewhere else.

868
01:00:39,439 --> 01:00:40,440
Right.

869
01:00:41,408 --> 01:00:42,375
Okay.

870
01:00:43,900 --> 01:00:44,944

871
01:01:02,529 --> 01:01:04,464
[security guard speaking French]
[clears throat]

872
01:01:06,399 --> 01:01:07,400
This way.

[jazz music plays]

874
01:01:12,380 --> 01:01:13,973
You sly dog.

875
01:01:14,574 --> 01:01:15,575
Never in doubt.

876
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:21,281
[speaks French]

877
01:01:22,482 --> 01:01:24,918
Did you see her? This is...Oh, man!

878
01:01:26,119 --> 01:01:27,620
Women here are...

879
01:01:28,922 --> 01:01:30,557
[Bill] I think it'’s time
to make a little money.

880
01:01:30,724 --> 01:01:34,160
Oh, look at this place!
I think we found the party.

881
01:01:37,430 --> 01:01:40,333
-[partygoer] Oh, no!
-[crowd shouts]

882
01:01:43,770 --> 01:01:45,372
Is that...Liz Taylor.

883
01:01:48,740 --> 01:01:49,209
That'’s Liz Taylor!Liz Taylor.

884
01:01:49,376 --> 01:01:52,780
That'’s Liz Taylor?
She look nice.

885
01:01:52,912 --> 01:01:54,180
Guess I should introduce you.

886
01:01:55,148 --> 01:01:56,216
[Bo] Yep.

887
01:01:56,383 --> 01:01:57,617
Fellas?[Marty] Mm-hmm?

888
01:02:02,220 --> 01:02:03,757
[Bill] Never met a movie star.
Kinda nervous.

889
01:02:03,923 --> 01:02:05,592
Well, lookie-loo.

890
01:02:05,759 --> 01:02:07,193
The Fighting 32.

891
01:02:08,261 --> 01:02:09,662
You came!

892
01:02:10,263 --> 01:02:11,264
Yes, ma'’am.

893
01:02:13,767 --> 01:02:15,402
Do you gentlemen
all know each other?

894
01:02:15,602 --> 01:02:16,970
Just sharing space
at the moment, ma'’am.

895
01:02:17,170 --> 01:02:19,639
That'’s right.
Until the actual war starts.

896
01:02:19,806 --> 01:02:21,508
And then,
we'’ll be on the ground.

897
01:02:21,675 --> 01:02:23,476
And they'’ll be nowhere
to be found.

898
01:02:23,643 --> 01:02:25,412
[scoffs] You always talk
in nursery rhymes?

899
01:02:25,612 --> 01:02:27,747
Please, take a seat.

900
01:02:27,914 --> 01:02:30,283
I could use some
fresh luck anyway.

901
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:32,850
Yes, ma'’am.

902
01:02:32,752 --> 01:02:33,753
Please.

903
01:02:40,860 --> 01:02:42,862
Okay. Why don'’t you
and I grab a drink

904
01:02:43,630 --> 01:02:46,366
and toast to not being
on a ship with these guys?

905
01:02:46,533 --> 01:02:47,767
Come on.Good idea.

906
01:02:47,934 --> 01:02:49,269
Buy a couple rounds on us.

907
01:02:51,204 --> 01:02:52,505
I'’ll keep your seat warm.

908
01:02:55,141 --> 01:02:56,676
[Elizabeth] Put some here.

909
01:02:56,843 --> 01:02:59,112
Let'’s go, Buddy.
Come on.[Elizabeth] Here. And...

910
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:01,514

My lucky man.

916
01:03:21,701 --> 01:03:23,269
[Marty] Oh, here we go.

917
01:03:24,270 --> 01:03:25,605
Cheers, ladies.

918
01:03:25,805 --> 01:03:27,273
To beautiful people,
beautiful life.Cheers.

919
01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:29,576
Yes, cheers.New friends,
future ex-wives.

920
01:03:29,743 --> 01:03:31,544
Here we go. Hey![laughs]

921

922
01:03:35,482 --> 01:03:36,716
Whoo![all cheer]

923
01:03:36,883 --> 01:03:38,118
[Bo] Mm-hmm.

924
01:03:38,284 --> 01:03:39,686
That'’s what we call
a winner.

925
01:03:41,354 --> 01:03:42,756
Come on!

926
01:03:42,922 --> 01:03:44,691
About time
to call it a night, Bubba.

927
01:03:44,858 --> 01:03:45,892
Yes!

928
01:03:46,926 --> 01:03:47,994
Oh, shit.

929
01:03:51,498 --> 01:03:52,766

930
01:03:52,932 --> 01:03:55,201
[both chuckle]

931
01:03:57,370 --> 01:04:00,874
So, you speak French.

932
01:04:01,410 --> 01:04:02,509
I picked it up
in high school.

933
01:04:04,444 --> 01:04:05,845
Uh, sir. Uh, whiskey,

934
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,181
and then,
whatever my friend'’s having.

935
01:04:10,784 --> 01:04:16,322
[speaking French]

936
01:04:19,793 --> 01:04:21,610
Show off.

937
01:04:21,895 --> 01:04:22,862
That was pretty good.

938
01:04:23,290 --> 01:04:25,932
It'’s good.[both laugh]

939
01:04:28,301 --> 01:04:29,602
Pretty wild.

01:04:29,769 --> 01:04:32,739
Rubbing shoulders
with movie stars.

941
01:04:32,906 --> 01:04:34,240
Drinking, gambling.

942
01:04:35,742 --> 01:04:37,644
The Reds are
about to strike,

943
01:04:37,811 --> 01:04:39,346
we'’re partying in France.

944
01:04:40,380 --> 01:04:41,414
[sighs]

945
01:04:42,949 --> 01:04:45,652
I just want to go home
with this having
meant something.

946
01:04:45,819 --> 01:04:46,786
Well...

947
01:04:48,540 --> 01:04:50,357
You just keep it up
with Miss Liz Taylor,

948
01:04:51,624 --> 01:04:52,525
and you just might.

949
01:04:52,692 --> 01:04:54,227
[both laugh]

950
01:04:56,363 --> 01:04:57,397
Thank you.

951
01:04:58,264 --> 01:04:59,766
You forgot the ginger beer.

952
01:04:59,933 --> 01:05:01,368
I saw a place
looked real nice.

953
01:05:01,534 --> 01:05:03,236
I'’ll get a drink from there.

954
01:05:03,403 --> 01:05:04,571
Hey, pal.Let'’s try that.

955
01:05:05,271 --> 01:05:06,339
Let'’s try that.

956
01:05:09,242 --> 01:05:10,910
Change of scenery,
fellas.

957
01:05:11,770 --> 01:05:13,380
As long as this place
has French women,
I'’m happy.

958
01:05:13,546 --> 01:05:14,848
We'’ll be jake on that front.

959
01:05:15,150 --> 01:05:16,683
Right, I lost
all my money anyway.
Come on.

960
01:05:16,850 --> 01:05:17,917
-[Bo] We'’re leaving?
-Sorry.

961
01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:19,285
Excuse me?

962
01:05:19,452 --> 01:05:22,255
Miss Elizabeth,
thank you for having us.

963
01:05:22,422 --> 01:05:24,240
It was very kind of you.

964
01:05:24,224 --> 01:05:25,859
Well, is that it for you boys?

965
01:05:26,260 --> 01:05:27,594
I'’m afraid so.

966
01:05:27,794 --> 01:05:30,463
Hmm. Well,
you be safe out there.

967
01:05:35,802 --> 01:05:36,803
Would you?

968
01:05:37,737 --> 01:05:38,805
[blows]

969
01:05:38,972 --> 01:05:40,600

the liberty area.

973
01:05:50,850 --> 01:05:53,186
I won'’t tell if you don'’t,
Lieutenant. Voilà!

974
01:05:53,386 --> 01:05:54,688
[Jesse] Oh!

975
01:05:54,854 --> 01:05:56,990
Voilà, voilà! Look at that.

976
01:05:57,157 --> 01:05:58,425
[Bo] How'’d you find this place?

977
01:05:58,591 --> 01:05:59,759

979
01:06:02,262 --> 01:06:04,431
Bonjour.Ladies.

980
01:06:04,597 --> 01:06:05,598
[Bill] You behave.

981
01:06:08,468 --> 01:06:10,470
Uh, whiskey, please.

982
01:06:13,340 --> 01:06:14,441
[Bo] Careful.

983
01:06:20,747 --> 01:06:22,315
Hmm. [chuckles]

984
01:06:22,482 --> 01:06:23,650
[Bo] Ladies!

985
01:06:23,850 --> 01:06:26,520
And drinks.Here you go.

[exhales]

987
01:06:31,925 --> 01:06:35,161
So you gotta use what ya got.

988
01:06:39,599 --> 01:06:42,669
Being handsome
helped me land Daisy,
but you?

989
01:06:43,870 --> 01:06:45,500
[smacks lips]

990
01:06:45,171 --> 01:06:46,906
You?

991
01:06:47,730 --> 01:06:50,430
We'’re gonna need
a different approach.[chuckles]

992
01:06:50,210 --> 01:06:51,211
How about...

993
01:06:52,245 --> 01:06:56,490
You'’re an American aviator
in France?

994
01:06:57,170 --> 01:06:58,218
That'’s all I got?

995
01:06:58,385 --> 01:06:59,953
Gotta play to
your strengths, Lieutenant.

996
01:07:00,487 --> 01:07:01,488
Sir.

997
01:07:04,491 --> 01:07:05,492
You'’re without your wings.

998
01:07:05,658 --> 01:07:07,794
[laughs] You gotta be
kidding me.

999
01:07:07,961 --> 01:07:09,496
No, no, Jesse,
I'’m not takin'’ your wings.

1000
01:07:09,662 --> 01:07:10,697
Just borrowing.

1001
01:07:12,650 --> 01:07:15,502
Plus, my CO refused
to pin '’em on me
during graduation,

1002
01:07:15,668 --> 01:07:18,505
so they'’re not
that sentimental.

1003
01:07:21,574 --> 01:07:22,976
Now, at least
you look the part.

1004
01:07:23,677 --> 01:07:24,678
[chuckles]

1005
01:07:29,282 --> 01:07:31,718
What about
a magic trick?Magic trick?

1006
01:07:31,918 --> 01:07:33,820
Yeah.You know magic tricks?

1007
01:07:34,688 --> 01:07:36,790
I-- I know '’em.
I know...

1008
01:07:36,956 --> 01:07:37,991
Yes or no?It'’s a magic trick.

1009
01:07:38,158 --> 01:07:39,693
You know a magic trick?Yeah.

1010
01:07:42,495 --> 01:07:43,663
[both laugh]

1011
01:07:43,830 --> 01:07:45,565
Like I said,
you gotta use what you got.

[coughs]

1017
01:07:58,110 --> 01:07:59,612
Sorry.It'’s okay.
[laughs]

1018
01:07:59,813 --> 01:08:00,847
Just say, "Bonjour."

1019
01:08:01,140 --> 01:08:02,248
Bonjour. Bonjour.

1020
01:08:07,954 --> 01:08:09,723
Bonjour. Bonjour.

1021
01:08:09,889 --> 01:08:10,824
[clears throat]

1022
01:08:10,990 --> 01:08:12,250
I'’d like to, um,

1023
01:08:12,192 --> 01:08:14,294
treat you ladies
to a magic trick.

1024
01:08:14,461 --> 01:08:16,129
It'’s called the, uh,

1025
01:08:16,296 --> 01:08:17,731
Fire Breathing Aviator.

1026
01:08:17,897 --> 01:08:19,766

[Tom chuckles]

1030
01:08:30,210 --> 01:08:31,478
[Marty] You know Frank Sinatra?

1031
01:08:32,645 --> 01:08:35,749
He'’s my third cousin.
[chuckles] Yeah.

1032
01:08:35,915 --> 01:08:38,218
I don'’t sound like him,
but I sure as hell
look like him, right?

1033
01:08:38,418 --> 01:08:40,530
Looks better on you.
You'’re the pilot in command.

1034
01:08:40,220 --> 01:08:43,890
[Bo] Bordeaux?
Baby, I don'’t drink wine. No.

1035
01:08:43,289 --> 01:08:45,658
Forgive my uncultured friend.
He doesn'’t know a damn thing.

1036
01:08:46,326 --> 01:08:47,761
Stick to whiskey.

1037
01:09:03,743 --> 01:09:05,780
Oh, they let you in here?

1038
01:09:08,381 --> 01:09:11,251
You know, I had something
going with Liz
before y'’all showed up.

1039
01:09:11,451 --> 01:09:12,786
[chuckles]

1040
01:09:14,454 --> 01:09:15,689
I think she'’s married.

1041
01:09:17,157 --> 01:09:18,625
Something funny, sideshow?

1042
01:09:18,792 --> 01:09:20,593
Excuse me,
just give me one second.

1043
01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:22,962
You'’re the one
that brought the circus.

1044
01:09:24,164 --> 01:09:25,765
[Tom] Hey.

1045
01:09:25,932 --> 01:09:27,967
What'’s going on?[Jesse] Nothing.

1046
01:09:28,134 --> 01:09:29,235
Everything'’s fine.

1047
01:09:29,402 --> 01:09:30,937
You need your
pansy-*** friend here

1048
01:09:31,104 --> 01:09:32,472
to help you out?Hey.

1049
01:09:32,639 --> 01:09:33,606
All right,
we can cool it.

1050
01:09:33,773 --> 01:09:34,908
We'’ve all been drinking.

1051
01:09:35,750 --> 01:09:36,943
Tom. I'’m good.[Marty] Hey, hey.

1052
01:09:37,110 --> 01:09:38,611
I-- I know.

1053
01:09:38,778 --> 01:09:39,979
Yeah, but you won'’t be
after I'’m done with you.

1054
01:09:40,180 --> 01:09:41,381
[grunts]

1055
01:09:41,548 --> 01:09:43,616
-[Marty] Back up! Tom!
-[Buddy] Come on!

1056
01:09:43,783 --> 01:09:45,352
Come on!Oh, sorry.

1057
01:09:45,518 --> 01:09:46,619
[Bill] Tom!
There'’s someone there.

1058
01:09:46,786 --> 01:09:48,421
[Tom] Come on!
Stop! Stop! Stop!

1059
01:09:48,621 --> 01:09:50,724
[Peters] Come on!
Let go of him! Hey! Hey![whistle blows]

1060
01:09:50,924 --> 01:09:52,492
[Bo] Come on, boys,
we gotta go!Stop! Stop!

1061
01:09:52,659 --> 01:09:54,527
-[Bo] Come on! Let'’s go! Run!
-[Marty] We gotta go. Run!

1062
01:09:54,694 --> 01:09:56,960
[Tom] Ah, shoot, your wings.

1063
01:09:56,262 --> 01:09:57,630
-[Marty] Y'’all lucky!
-[Buddy] Let'’s go!

1064
01:09:57,797 --> 01:09:58,698
Hustle, ladies!

1065
01:09:58,865 --> 01:10:01,134
Oh, um. [laughs]

1066
01:10:01,301 --> 01:10:03,670
Tom, come on!
Tom, that way! That way!

1067
01:10:03,837 --> 01:10:05,305
Oh, God!Go, go, go!

1068
01:10:05,505 --> 01:10:10,510
[siren wailing]

1069
01:10:14,381 --> 01:10:15,849
[Tom] You know
how I do that trick?

1070
01:10:17,150 --> 01:10:18,418
I eat the cigarette.

1071
01:10:20,153 --> 01:10:21,688
You didn'’t have to do that.

1072
01:10:22,689 --> 01:10:23,890
I got the kiss.

1073
01:10:25,859 --> 01:10:27,394
I wish you hadn'’t hit him.

1074
01:10:29,529 --> 01:10:31,231
You would'’ve done
the same for me.

1075
01:10:40,774 --> 01:10:42,275
Not hunting
for a thank you.

1076
01:10:42,442 --> 01:10:43,977
You were hunting
for a fight though.

1077
01:10:44,144 --> 01:10:45,578
Defending my wingman.

1078
01:10:52,452 --> 01:10:54,154
I can fight my own fights.

1079
01:10:55,989 --> 01:10:57,691
Been doing it
for a long time now.

1080
01:11:10,503 --> 01:11:11,571
Jesse Brown.

1081
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:13,773
Squadron of one.

1082
01:11:21,314 --> 01:11:23,717
Ready room. ASAP.
Something big'’s going down.

1083
01:11:24,884 --> 01:11:25,885
[grunts]

1084
01:11:30,523 --> 01:11:31,658
[sighs]

1085
01:11:32,959 --> 01:11:35,829
[****] I hope that you all
had fun last night,

1086
01:11:36,290 --> 01:11:40,200
because the North Koreans
came pouring over
the 38th Parallel.

1087
01:11:40,367 --> 01:11:41,735
They have taken Seoul.

1088
01:11:41,901 --> 01:11:43,737
If they take the rest of
the southern peninsula,

1089
01:11:43,903 --> 01:11:46,840
it'’s on to Japan,
and there go our efforts
to contain communism,

1090
01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:48,108
so says Washington.

1091
01:11:48,308 --> 01:11:49,909
So, what does that
mean for us?

1092
01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:51,440
It means we'’re up.

1093
01:11:51,211 --> 01:11:53,546
We'’re setting sail for Korea.

1094
01:11:53,747 --> 01:11:55,315
Now, I know that
for almost all of you,

1095
01:11:55,482 --> 01:11:57,784
this will be the first time
you'’re seeing combat.

1096
01:11:58,685 --> 01:12:00,220
Your training
is important, yes.

1097
01:12:00,387 --> 01:12:02,856
And you are sure as hell ready
to do what you need to do.

1098
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:04,424
I made sure of that.

1099
01:12:04,624 --> 01:12:06,826
But the most
important thing is this:

1100
01:12:06,993 --> 01:12:08,628
we bring everyone home.

1101
01:12:09,963 --> 01:12:12,499
We bring everyone home.

1102
01:12:22,342 --> 01:12:25,812
[****] Brass is worried
there may be as many as
100,000 Chinese

1103
01:12:25,979 --> 01:12:29,449
already in North Korea,
ready to take up the fight
at a moment'’s notice.

1104
01:12:29,649 --> 01:12:32,118
MacArthur ordered B-29'’s
to take out two bridges

1105
01:12:32,285 --> 01:12:34,454
along the Yalu River,
on the border,

1106
01:12:34,654 --> 01:12:37,590
hoping to slow the Chinese
from sending in
any more troops.

1107
01:12:37,791 --> 01:12:38,792
But they missed.

1108
01:12:38,958 --> 01:12:41,940
So, I will lead
the Fighting 32.

1109
01:12:41,261 --> 01:12:43,897
We will take out
the antiaircraft
in Sinuiju City.

1110
01:12:44,970 --> 01:12:46,232
Tarsiers, you will fly support
for the Panthers

1111
01:12:46,399 --> 01:12:49,350
until it is safe for them
to come in and bomb
those bridges.

1112
01:12:49,235 --> 01:12:51,104
This is just a friendly
reminder, gentlemen.

1113
01:12:51,271 --> 01:12:53,840
Don'’t shoot or bomb anything
on the Chinese side
of the river,

1114
01:12:54,700 --> 01:12:55,875
unless you wanna be
personally responsible

1115
01:12:56,420 --> 01:12:57,877
for starting another
world war.

1116
01:12:58,440 --> 01:13:00,313
We'’re flying directly
into gunfire.

1117
01:13:00,480 --> 01:13:01,681
I need everyone sharp.

1118
01:13:02,315 --> 01:13:03,316
Be smart.

1119
01:13:04,500 --> 01:13:05,251
Be ready.

1120
01:13:05,418 --> 01:13:06,453
[all] Yes, sir.

1121
01:13:09,589 --> 01:13:14,694
[engines roaring]

1122
01:13:24,637 --> 01:13:27,700
[****]
201 to 205. You there?

1123
01:13:27,173 --> 01:13:28,641
[Tom on radio]
Go ahead, 201.

1124
01:13:28,842 --> 01:13:30,610
I seem to be having some trouble
with my landing gear.

1125
01:13:30,777 --> 01:13:31,845
Can you confirm?

1126
01:13:33,146 --> 01:13:34,948
[Tom] Your gear is in transit.

1127
01:13:35,582 --> 01:13:37,484
Uh, 201 to rug.

1128
01:13:37,650 --> 01:13:40,153
We got a mechanical issue,
and can'’t lead us
to the mission area.

1129
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:42,155
Passing the lead to 205.

1130
01:13:42,322 --> 01:13:45,250
[Leyte CIC on radio]
Roger, 205. You are cleared
for the downwind.

1131
01:13:49,763 --> 01:13:51,531
Stay on the right side
of the river, Tom.

1132
01:13:51,731 --> 01:13:53,199
Yes, sir.

1133
01:14:13,386 --> 01:14:18,825
[engines roaring]

1134
01:14:23,196 --> 01:14:25,965
[breathes heavily]

1135
01:14:34,474 --> 01:14:36,943
[breathes heavily]

1136
01:14:49,856 --> 01:14:52,959
[breathes deeply]

1137
01:14:53,793 --> 01:14:55,395
205 is in hot.

1138
01:15:12,545 --> 01:15:13,546
[artillery zipping]

1139
01:15:19,552 --> 01:15:21,454
[grunts]

1140
01:15:34,901 --> 01:15:35,969
[Tom] 205 to Flight.

1141
01:15:37,437 --> 01:15:39,720
Commencing flak
suppression now.

1142
01:15:41,441 --> 01:15:42,442
-Ah!
-[gasps]

1143
01:15:42,609 --> 01:15:43,910
[jets roaring]

1144
01:15:44,770 --> 01:15:45,110
It'’s a MiG!

1145
01:15:47,781 --> 01:15:51,317
Koenig, take Goode and Lavery.
Stay on the AA.

1146
01:15:51,484 --> 01:15:52,218
We'’re on it.

1147
01:15:52,419 --> 01:15:53,720
Jesse, break left.

1148
01:15:53,887 --> 01:15:54,788
Let'’s hose this guy.

1149
01:15:54,988 --> 01:15:56,220
Roger that!

1150
01:15:58,425 --> 01:15:59,659
Happy hunting.

1151
01:15:59,859 --> 01:16:01,270
It'’s Bo time.

1152
01:16:13,807 --> 01:16:15,410
Three good hits.

1153
01:16:15,208 --> 01:16:17,243
Coming around for another
run on the AA.

1154
01:16:26,319 --> 01:16:27,921
See him?[Jesse] Negative.

1155
01:16:28,488 --> 01:16:29,522
I got nothing.

1156
01:16:35,895 --> 01:16:38,231
[engine roaring]

1157
01:16:38,898 --> 01:16:40,200
[machine guns firing]

1158
01:16:40,367 --> 01:16:42,350
Bandit high!
Bandit high!Huh?

1159
01:16:42,202 --> 01:16:43,269
[Jesse] Break!

1160
01:16:56,850 --> 01:16:58,485
Tom! He'’s on me pretty good!

1161
01:16:58,651 --> 01:17:00,854
I'’m gonna bring him to you
through the canyon.

1162
01:17:02,522 --> 01:17:04,570
I say we show him
the lighthouse.

1163
01:17:04,224 --> 01:17:05,225
Meet me in the middle.

1164
01:17:12,980 --> 01:17:16,369
Enemy AA is silenced.
I repeat, enemy AA
is silenced.

1165
01:17:16,536 --> 01:17:18,872
[Panther lead]
Copy that, Flight Leader.
Approaching target now.

1166
01:17:23,376 --> 01:17:24,444
[breathes heavily] Oh!

1167
01:17:30,283 --> 01:17:32,819
[grunts, breathes heavily]

1168
01:17:32,986 --> 01:17:34,521
Come on.

1169
01:17:54,708 --> 01:17:57,100
[Tom] Okay,
I have a visual on you.

1170
01:17:57,177 --> 01:17:59,312
Break right,
up and hard on my call.

1171
01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:00,914
Roger that!

1172
01:18:12,492 --> 01:18:13,727
Ready, set...

1173
01:18:13,893 --> 01:18:15,295
Hit it![groans]

1174

[shouts, laughs]

1176
01:18:23,370 --> 01:18:24,504
Good hit, Tom!

1177
01:18:24,704 --> 01:18:27,640
Quite fine, Jesse! Quite fine!

1178
01:18:32,312 --> 01:18:34,781
[Panther lead]
This is Panther lead.
Approaching target.

1179
01:18:51,798 --> 01:18:52,932
[explosion]

1180
01:18:57,404 --> 01:18:58,772
Good hit, good hit.

1181
01:18:58,938 --> 01:19:00,974
Rear bridge is down.
Coming back around.

1182
01:19:04,411 --> 01:19:06,246
[Tom] Let'’s bring it home,
Panthers.

1183
01:19:08,348 --> 01:19:09,349
[machine gun cocks]

1184
01:19:15,689 --> 01:19:19,920
[Panther lead] Flight lead,
we'’ve got AA
coming from the Chinese side.

1185
01:19:19,259 --> 01:19:20,427
[Tom] We can'’t touch '’em.

1186
01:19:20,627 --> 01:19:22,228
Time to bug out.

1187
01:19:22,395 --> 01:19:23,563
[Panther lead]
Roger that.

1188
01:19:37,644 --> 01:19:39,512
205, I still have ordnance.

1189
01:19:40,246 --> 01:19:41,414
I can hit the bridge.

1190
01:19:41,581 --> 01:19:43,850
It'’s too much AA, 211.
Stand down.

1191
01:19:48,321 --> 01:19:50,457
Jesse, stand down!
That'’s an order!

1192
01:20:07,841 --> 01:20:09,776

1197
01:21:10,904 --> 01:21:12,405
That'’s a direct hit!

1198
01:21:12,605 --> 01:21:14,808
That'’s a direct hit!
Bridge is down!

1199
01:21:14,974 --> 01:21:16,509
[Bo] That a boy, Jesse!

1200
01:21:16,676 --> 01:21:17,977
There we go, ace!

1201
01:21:18,178 --> 01:21:20,413
[Tom] Iroquois, this is 205.

1202
01:21:20,613 --> 01:21:22,382
Both bridges have been
destroyed.

1203
01:21:22,549 --> 01:21:24,117
Returning to ship.

1204
01:21:24,317 --> 01:21:26,953
[Leyte CIC on radio]
Copy that, 205.
Good work.

1205
01:21:29,923 --> 01:21:31,391
[sighs]

1206
01:21:39,632 --> 01:21:42,936
[****] Seems like I missed
one hell of a ride, huh?

1207
01:21:43,103 --> 01:21:45,972
Intelligence has confirmed
that that rat line
has been crippled. Well done.

1208
01:21:46,139 --> 01:21:47,240
[all cheer]

1209
01:21:47,407 --> 01:21:49,900
Now, we are all
still on standby,

1210
01:21:49,209 --> 01:21:52,979
but everybody go
get yourselves cleaned up
for some chow.

1211
01:21:54,581 --> 01:21:56,416
[Tom] Well...
[clears throat]

1212
01:21:56,583 --> 01:21:58,451
[Marty] Let'’s go, boys.
Let'’s get some food.Good job, Tom.

1213
01:22:02,220 --> 01:22:03,390
Here'’s the mission report.

1214
01:22:04,391 --> 01:22:05,392
Well done, Hudner.

1215
01:22:07,270 --> 01:22:08,280
How you feeling?

1216
01:22:09,229 --> 01:22:10,263
Good.

1217
01:22:12,832 --> 01:22:13,867
Hmm.

1218
01:22:14,567 --> 01:22:15,568
Sit down.

01:22:28,381 --> 01:22:29,282
Meh.

1221
01:22:29,449 --> 01:22:30,450
[chuckles]

1222
01:22:31,170 --> 01:22:32,180
That feeling?

1223
01:22:33,153 --> 01:22:35,121
That'’s the mundanity
of a job well done.

1224
01:22:39,592 --> 01:22:42,729
You know how many wars
there have been
in the history of mankind?

1225
01:22:44,831 --> 01:22:46,660
No, course not.

1226
01:22:46,266 --> 01:22:48,401
'’Cause most wars
are forgotten.

1227
01:22:48,568 --> 01:22:49,869
All the men
who fought in '’em,

1228
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:52,872
and all the medals they won.

1229
01:22:53,390 --> 01:22:55,408
Heroes and hardware
fade to the back
of the history books

1230
01:22:55,575 --> 01:22:57,711
because it'’s not about war.

1231
01:22:57,877 --> 01:23:00,880
This war never ends,
there'’s no V Day,
there'’s no finish line.

1232
01:23:02,349 --> 01:23:04,484
The real battle
in all of life

1233
01:23:04,651 --> 01:23:06,486
is being someone
that people can count on.

1234
01:23:08,488 --> 01:23:10,490
And that isn'’t defined
in a single moment.

1235
01:23:10,657 --> 01:23:13,159
You earn that with
a lifetime of showing up.

1236
01:23:14,861 --> 01:23:18,331
These conflicts,
they don'’t define you, Tom.
You don'’t want '’em to.

1237
01:23:18,498 --> 01:23:19,499
Trust me.

1238
01:23:21,735 --> 01:23:23,503
-[lighter flicks]
-Go get something to eat.

1239
01:23:24,938 --> 01:23:25,939
Go on.

1240
01:23:32,245 --> 01:23:33,313
Hey, Tom.

1241
01:23:35,115 --> 01:23:36,483
What'’s the most
important thing?

1242
01:23:38,184 --> 01:23:39,552
Bring '’em home.

1243
01:23:40,860 --> 01:23:41,121
You did.

1244
01:24:23,290 --> 01:24:25,265
[marine] Sir,
that is absolutely true.

1245
01:24:25,432 --> 01:24:28,702
[marine 2] This is wisdom-seven.
Enemy troops estimate
company size and two tanks...

1246
01:24:36,843 --> 01:24:40,680
[marine 3 on radio]
Personnel Tango-Romeo-
5-2-5-3-9-0.

1247
01:24:46,619 --> 01:24:48,188
You know what else
I could use?

1248
01:24:48,388 --> 01:24:49,889
[Peters] Warm blankets?

1249
01:24:51,624 --> 01:24:52,625
Fire?

1250
01:24:53,460 --> 01:24:54,694
The sun, maybe?

1251
01:24:56,463 --> 01:24:57,831
Another shot
with Liz Taylor.

1252
01:24:57,997 --> 01:25:00,700
Oh, Jesus! Buddy,
you gotta stop saying that.

1253
01:25:00,867 --> 01:25:02,635
[scoffs]
You never had a shot with Liz.

1254
01:25:02,836 --> 01:25:04,471
Uh, you weren'’t
paying attention.

1255
01:25:05,271 --> 01:25:06,272
[sighs]

1256
01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:07,741
I would take feeling
in my toes

1257
01:25:07,907 --> 01:25:09,776
rather than a shot
with Liz right now.

1258
01:25:09,976 --> 01:25:11,211
[laughs]

1259
01:25:17,500 --> 01:25:18,651
You think
they'’ll hit us tonight?

1260
01:25:20,787 --> 01:25:21,788
I would.

1261
01:25:23,590 --> 01:25:25,558
You ever got anything nice
to say?

1262
01:25:27,927 --> 01:25:30,330
[flare fires, hisses]

1263
01:25:44,878 --> 01:25:46,579
[bullet buzzes][grunts]

1264
01:25:46,746 --> 01:25:48,581
[Peters] Incoming![Buddy] Shit!

1265
01:25:51,818 --> 01:25:53,119
Corpsman!

1266
01:25:53,319 --> 01:25:54,487
[corpsman]
You'’re doing fine.
I got you.

1267
01:25:55,355 --> 01:25:56,356
[marine] Downrange!

1268
01:25:58,591 --> 01:26:00,460
Move left![marine 2] Fire at will!

1269
01:26:00,627 --> 01:26:02,195
[marine] Move, move, move!

1270
01:26:02,829 --> 01:26:04,300
Incoming!

1271
01:26:14,974 --> 01:26:17,277
[gunshot echoes]

1272
01:26:19,779 --> 01:26:20,780
What'’s going on?

1273
01:26:39,933 --> 01:26:41,234
Looks like
the mission report said

1274
01:26:41,401 --> 01:26:43,703
I ignored my commanding
officer'’s orders.

1275
01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:49,309
Well, you know
how this stuff works.

1276
01:26:49,509 --> 01:26:51,770
I only wrote down
what happened.

1277
01:26:55,148 --> 01:26:57,417
I'’m glad that'’s
what you saw,
Lieutenant.

1278
01:27:01,855 --> 01:27:03,123
It'’s what happened.

1279
01:27:09,596 --> 01:27:12,298
Look, what difference
does it make?
We got the job done.

1280
01:27:18,872 --> 01:27:20,340
Insubordination.

1281
01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:28,114
That'’s what they'’re putting
in my Fitness Report.

1282
01:27:35,321 --> 01:27:36,690
Uh, no, Cevoli'’s gotta
understand--

1283
01:27:36,856 --> 01:27:38,291
It'’s coming from
above Cevoli, Tom.

1284
01:27:38,458 --> 01:27:39,759
Skipper'’s already read it.

1285
01:27:45,999 --> 01:27:47,333
Jesse, I didn'’t
want that to happen.

1286
01:27:47,500 --> 01:27:50,603
What did you want to happen,
Mr. Academy?

1287
01:27:57,811 --> 01:27:58,912
Sorry, pal.

1288
01:28:10,924 --> 01:28:13,326
You really hamstringed me
on this one.
[chuckles]

1289
01:28:17,230 --> 01:28:19,466
I can'’t get promoted
with that on my report.

1290
01:28:28,608 --> 01:28:30,777
You ever think
we'’d see a MiG?

1291
01:28:30,944 --> 01:28:33,480
Hell, I thought
Goode was gonna bail out
all the way back to Brooklyn.

1292
01:28:33,646 --> 01:28:35,982
You'’re the one
who shit his pants
when the MiG swooped in.

1293
01:28:36,182 --> 01:28:38,618
By the way,
you changed your diaper yet?Why don'’t you come check?

1294
01:28:38,785 --> 01:28:41,187
Yeah, we'’re lucky
we made it out alive
the way you two shoot.

1295
01:28:41,354 --> 01:28:42,355
How'’s that for aim?[laughs]

1296
01:28:42,522 --> 01:28:43,790
[knock on door]

1297
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:47,427
I need your help
with something.

1298
01:28:49,396 --> 01:28:50,864
[officer on PA]
All blue shirts on duty...

1299
01:28:51,640 --> 01:28:52,966
[Jesse, muffled]
Boy, you stole it.

1300
01:28:53,133 --> 01:28:55,101
That'’s a white man'’s uniform.

1301
01:28:55,268 --> 01:28:57,837
[officer on PA]
All blue shirts on duty
report to Main Hangar 3.

1302
01:28:58,400 --> 01:28:59,706
[Jesse] You shouldn'’t be
in that.

1303
01:28:59,873 --> 01:29:00,874
Eh, boy?

1304
01:29:02,776 --> 01:29:04,310
Think I'’ll make it out--

1305
01:29:28,168 --> 01:29:30,570
Every hateful word
anyone'’s ever said to me.

1306
01:29:34,841 --> 01:29:35,842
Wrote it down.

1307
01:29:40,246 --> 01:29:41,481
Repeat it to myself.

1308
01:29:46,753 --> 01:29:48,421
Been doing it
since I was a boy.

1309
01:29:51,624 --> 01:29:52,692
It helps.

1310
01:30:01,901 --> 01:30:03,169
What'’s that?

1311
01:30:03,336 --> 01:30:05,171
Testimonies from the guys.

1312
01:30:05,338 --> 01:30:08,575
Saying how the mission
was complicated,
and you did the right thing.

1313
01:30:10,276 --> 01:30:12,345
It'’ll fix whatever remark
they put in your report.

1314
01:30:20,487 --> 01:30:21,888
There'’s a--
There'’s a way things work

1315
01:30:22,550 --> 01:30:23,523
you'’re not always
gonna understand.

1316
01:30:25,859 --> 01:30:29,729
A slap on my wrist,
it'’s-- it'’s not the same
as a slap on yours.

1317
01:30:30,964 --> 01:30:32,399
[sighs]

1318
01:30:33,466 --> 01:30:34,467
This won'’t help.

1319
01:30:40,774 --> 01:30:42,208
I'’m sticking
my neck out for you.

1320
01:30:44,440 --> 01:30:45,645
Sticking your neck out?

1321
01:30:46,646 --> 01:30:47,814
With a piece of paper?

1322
01:30:49,649 --> 01:30:50,917
Tom...

1323
01:30:53,253 --> 01:30:54,888
that paper cost you nothing.

1324
01:30:56,256 --> 01:30:57,257
Nothing!

1325
01:30:58,324 --> 01:31:00,193
You know how tired
I am of people

1326
01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:03,196
trying to help me
while looking down on me?

1327
01:31:06,666 --> 01:31:08,234
I'’m not looking down on you.

1328
01:31:12,672 --> 01:31:14,700
What do you want me to do?

1329
01:31:19,713 --> 01:31:22,649
Just be my wingman, pal.

1330
01:31:25,518 --> 01:31:26,519
That'’s it.

1331
01:31:28,688 --> 01:31:32,392
Forget the life saver,
and get in the damn water!

1332
01:31:32,559 --> 01:31:33,927
Please, Tom!

1333
01:32:04,824 --> 01:32:06,192
Ensign Brown?

1334
01:32:08,395 --> 01:32:11,264
We were waiting for you
back in the wardroom,
but you never showed.

1335
01:32:14,340 --> 01:32:15,402
Needed some time alone.

1336
01:32:20,707 --> 01:32:22,642
Bunch of us brothers
across the ship been talking.

1337
01:32:24,210 --> 01:32:26,179
Heard you had some
real good shooting yesterday,

1338
01:32:26,346 --> 01:32:28,481
and we just wanna
let you know we see you.

1339
01:32:32,886 --> 01:32:36,423
[sailor 1]
Yeah, my rack man knows
how to fix it. I'’ll get him.

1340
01:32:36,589 --> 01:32:39,926
[sailor 2] On it. Now get these
back on the cleats, too.

1341
01:32:43,229 --> 01:32:45,650
[sailor 3]
Tab it, mark it off.

1342
01:32:55,508 --> 01:32:58,440
Bunch of us chipped in
back in Cannes.

1343
01:33:06,886 --> 01:33:08,321
What'’s your name, sailor?

1344
01:33:09,122 --> 01:33:10,900
Fambrough.

1345
01:33:10,924 --> 01:33:13,493
Archie Fambrough, sir.

1346
01:33:15,762 --> 01:33:17,970
Jesse.

1347
01:33:31,378 --> 01:33:32,545
Archie.

1348
01:33:36,783 --> 01:33:38,284
Tell the brothers
I appreciate it.

1349
01:33:47,994 --> 01:33:52,650
[helicopter whirring]

1350
01:33:54,968 --> 01:33:57,937
[sailor] Roger that!
Let'’s mount it to the deck!
We should be good.

1351
01:33:58,104 --> 01:33:59,572
[corpsman]
All right, let'’s go.

1352
01:34:00,807 --> 01:34:02,542
[corpsman 2]
That'’s it, easy. Easy!

1353
01:34:02,709 --> 01:34:04,244
Be gentle now.
All right, let'’s go,
let'’s go, come on!

1354
01:34:04,411 --> 01:34:06,413
-We got you.
-[corpsman 3] He'’s packaged.

1355
01:34:06,579 --> 01:34:07,747
Gonna be okay.

1356
01:34:07,947 --> 01:34:10,160
Move! Doc'’s
waiting downstairs.

1357
01:34:11,885 --> 01:34:12,952
We got you, bud.

1358
01:34:16,322 --> 01:34:18,992
[sailor 1] Aye, aye, sir,
they'’re up and running.

1359
01:34:19,159 --> 01:34:21,528
[sailor 2] Hey, double time it
back to your station.

1360
01:34:22,262 --> 01:34:23,596
[pilot] Mississippi Brown?

1361
01:34:24,731 --> 01:34:26,332
Charlie Ward.

1362
01:34:26,533 --> 01:34:27,834
We went to
flight school together.

1363
01:34:28,100 --> 01:34:29,969
Alabama Ward?The very one.

1364
01:34:31,137 --> 01:34:33,173
You flying eggbeaters now?

1365
01:34:33,340 --> 01:34:35,308
The Navy must'’ve heard
I was looking for something
stupid and dangerous.

1366
01:34:35,475 --> 01:34:38,110
Besides, I wouldn'’t
feel right sharing
the fixed-wing skies

1367
01:34:38,178 --> 01:34:39,579
with a Southern legend.

1368
01:34:40,747 --> 01:34:41,881
Always knew you'’d make it,

1369
01:34:42,480 --> 01:34:43,983
but it is damn good
to see you, Jesse.

1370
01:34:44,150 --> 01:34:46,986
Although, I wish it were
under better circumstances.

1371
01:34:51,991 --> 01:34:52,992
Good to see you, pal.

1372
01:34:54,861 --> 01:34:56,563
Take care of yourself,
Mississippi.

1373
01:35:01,301 --> 01:35:02,302
'’Bama!

1374
01:35:04,738 --> 01:35:05,739
I married her.

1375
01:35:06,639 --> 01:35:07,640
[claps]

1376
01:35:11,578 --> 01:35:13,179
Oh, we home, baby.

1377
01:35:15,810 --> 01:35:16,583
You wanna get down?[grunts]

1378
01:35:16,750 --> 01:35:17,784
Okay.

1379
01:35:23,189 --> 01:35:24,190
[sighs]

1380
01:35:26,159 --> 01:35:27,193
Jesse.

1381
01:35:36,903 --> 01:35:39,239
[Jesse]
My dear, sweet angel,

1382
01:35:39,406 --> 01:35:40,974
I hope this letter
reaches you in time,

1383
01:35:41,174 --> 01:35:42,909
because I wanted
to be the first

1384
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:45,478
to wish you
a very happy birthday.

1385
01:35:45,645 --> 01:35:47,947
I know it'’s hard to plan
a party from across the world,

1386
01:35:48,114 --> 01:35:51,484
but I thought of something fun
we might be
able to do together.

1387
01:35:51,651 --> 01:35:52,919
Grab Pam.

1388
01:35:53,860 --> 01:35:54,254
Got something for her, too.

1389
01:35:54,421 --> 01:35:55,422
[chuckles]

1390
01:35:59,659 --> 01:36:01,940
"Oh, it'’s dark
and it'’s cramped

1391
01:36:01,261 --> 01:36:03,363
in this spot we'’ve all been.

1392
01:36:03,530 --> 01:36:07,400
It'’s a place for a chick,
but not a mean, old hen."

1393
01:36:30,123 --> 01:36:33,260
"It'’s dark and it'’s cramped,
in this spot we'’ve all been."

1394
01:36:50,477 --> 01:36:53,747
Daddy got us a gift.Oh.
[mumbles]

1395
01:36:53,913 --> 01:36:54,981
Yeah.

1396
01:36:56,716 --> 01:36:57,717
[gasps]

1397
01:36:59,319 --> 01:37:00,620
Miss Pam, look.

1398
01:37:00,787 --> 01:37:01,855
[gasps]

1399
01:37:13,767 --> 01:37:17,904
[Jesse] Darling,
hope you found a little box
in Pam'’s closet.

1400
01:37:19,472 --> 01:37:21,174
I'’m going to close now.

1401
01:37:21,341 --> 01:37:23,143
I'’ll write to you
as soon I can.

1402
01:37:24,440 --> 01:37:25,445
Your devoted husband.

1403
01:37:26,913 --> 01:37:30,150
Lovingly and completely yours.

1404
01:37:31,785 --> 01:37:32,919
I'’ll love you forever.

1405
01:37:34,287 --> 01:37:35,321
Jesse.

1406
01:37:46,633 --> 01:37:49,602
Just talked to some of
those injured soldiers
that are arriving.

1407
01:37:51,237 --> 01:37:52,305
[scoffs]

1408
01:37:55,750 --> 01:37:56,943
They'’re from
the 1st Marine Division.

1409
01:37:57,110 --> 01:37:59,546
[Marty] Same ones
who hitched a ride with us
from Quonset.

1410
01:38:01,348 --> 01:38:02,982
They'’re pinned down
at Hagaru Base.

1411
01:38:04,684 --> 01:38:07,120
They'’re saying that
it'’s an unspeakable hell.

1412
01:38:09,356 --> 01:38:10,557
For every one marine,

1413
01:38:10,757 --> 01:38:13,193
there are six Chinese
hiding in the woods.

1414
01:38:13,360 --> 01:38:15,362
Gets below minus 30 at night.

1415
01:38:18,765 --> 01:38:21,670
Those boys are holding on
by their fingernails.

1416
01:38:23,770 --> 01:38:26,272
Some air support would be
mighty welcome. Hmm?

1417
01:38:28,375 --> 01:38:31,211
Punch a hole in that wall.
Take away the Chinese
numerical advantage.

1418
01:38:31,378 --> 01:38:33,947
Give our guys a chance
to get back up on their feet.

1419
01:38:39,285 --> 01:38:41,121
This is a dangerous mission.

1420
01:38:42,889 --> 01:38:45,225
It is dangerous
in a different way
than Sinuiju, okay?

1421
01:38:45,392 --> 01:38:47,227
This is not about
bridges and rat lines.

1422
01:38:47,394 --> 01:38:50,463
This is about thousands
of Chinese soldiers
hiding in the woods

1423
01:38:50,663 --> 01:38:53,433
and shooting at you
from 20 feet below.

1424
01:38:55,468 --> 01:38:57,170
This is extremely
hazardous duty.

1425
01:38:57,370 --> 01:38:58,738
I am not gonna sugarcoat it.

1426
01:38:59,472 --> 01:39:01,307
Men need help,

1427
01:39:01,474 --> 01:39:03,443
and they need what
only we can give '’em.

1428
01:39:04,444 --> 01:39:05,912
So, I'’m gonna take you there.

1429
01:39:06,680 --> 01:39:08,480
We'’re gonna give '’em hell.

1430
01:39:08,248 --> 01:39:10,500
We'’re gonna get
those marines back.

1431
01:39:10,250 --> 01:39:11,918
[pilot] Yes, sir.
Let'’s get outta here.

1432
01:39:12,118 --> 01:39:14,200
[plane roaring][marine] Two o'’clock!
Comin'’ at ya!

1433
01:39:14,187 --> 01:39:15,855
[marine 1] I can'’t see it.
[marine 2] I got him!

1434
01:39:16,220 --> 01:39:17,590
I got him!

1435
01:39:24,497 --> 01:39:25,832
[artillery approaching]

1436
01:39:25,999 --> 01:39:27,330
[grunts]

1437
01:39:28,334 --> 01:39:29,302

1438
01:39:29,469 --> 01:39:30,603
[groans]

1439
01:39:31,337 --> 01:39:32,706
Buddy, hey!

1440
01:39:34,774 --> 01:39:35,909
You'’re good, you'’re good.

1441
01:39:36,760 --> 01:39:37,577
Come on, come on.
You'’re good. Go!

1442
01:39:37,744 --> 01:39:38,878
You'’re good. Go!

1443
01:39:41,748 --> 01:39:42,716
[screams]

1444
01:39:43,483 --> 01:39:46,152

1445
01:39:48,521 --> 01:39:50,857
[groans]

1446
01:39:51,240 --> 01:39:52,325
[marine] Right side!
Two o'’clock!

1447
01:39:53,930 --> 01:39:54,940
[marine 2] Bring it out!

1448
01:39:56,496 --> 01:39:57,931
You know any good prayers?

1449
01:39:58,980 --> 01:39:59,899
Come on, we'’ve seen
worse than this!

1450
01:40:00,660 --> 01:40:02,869
If you want a prayer,
"Dear God, send us
some angels."

1451
01:40:17,484 --> 01:40:19,486
[marine 1] There!
The tree line! Light '’em up!

1452
01:40:23,957 --> 01:40:26,326
Fire '’em up![marine 2] Yeah,
get '’em, boys!

1453
01:40:40,974 --> 01:40:42,242
[marines] Yeah!

1454
01:40:54,988 --> 01:40:56,723
[marine 3] Move! Move! Move!Come on!

1455
01:40:56,923 --> 01:40:58,792
Can'’t let the flyboys
take all the credit!

1456
01:40:58,958 --> 01:41:00,927
[shouting]

1457
01:41:01,940 --> 01:41:02,929
[panting]

1458
01:41:06,366 --> 01:41:08,935
[marine 4] Get down,
get down! Let'’s go!
Let'’s go! Let'’s go!

1459
01:41:09,102 --> 01:41:10,370
[grunting]

1460
01:41:22,182 --> 01:41:24,417
[shouting]

1461
01:41:31,191 --> 01:41:32,459
[marine 5] Yeah!

1462
01:41:33,893 --> 01:41:35,995
You see that?
We got a Negro pilot!

1463
01:41:36,863 --> 01:41:38,898
[Peters] Let'’s go![grunts]

1464
01:41:48,908 --> 01:41:50,777
[**** on radio]
Looks like we got
the Chinese running,

1465
01:41:50,977 --> 01:41:52,145
but let'’s get
a closer look, boys.

1466
01:41:52,312 --> 01:41:53,747
Rendezvous on me.

1467
01:41:57,417 --> 01:41:59,719
[shouting in Mandarin]

1468
01:42:04,624 --> 01:42:07,600
211, you got a streamer.
I think you'’re losing fuel.

1469
01:42:15,769 --> 01:42:16,736
It'’s not fuel.

1470
01:42:16,903 --> 01:42:18,438
She'’s bleeding oil.

1471
01:42:23,243 --> 01:42:24,678
[engine sputtering]

1472
01:42:30,500 --> 01:42:32,118
She'’s not staying up
in the air much longer.

1473
01:42:34,954 --> 01:42:37,524
Let'’s climb.
Find a place
to put her down.

1474
01:42:50,970 --> 01:42:52,772
[Tom] Take her down
nice and easy, Jesse.

1475
01:43:02,415 --> 01:43:03,416
Jesse, at your 10:00.

1476
01:43:05,819 --> 01:43:07,354
It could work.

1477
01:43:08,221 --> 01:43:09,255
Eyes on it.

1478
01:43:19,699 --> 01:43:21,801
Flight lead,
I'’m following him down.

1479
01:43:21,968 --> 01:43:23,870
Copy that.
We'’ll keep an eye on you.

1480
01:43:24,700 --> 01:43:25,505
Switching radio to
search and rescue.

1481
01:43:31,511 --> 01:43:32,545
Checklist?

1482
01:43:33,513 --> 01:43:34,547
Go ahead.

1483
01:43:35,548 --> 01:43:36,816
[breathing heavily]
Salvo rockets.

1484
01:43:50,864 --> 01:43:52,132
Release drop tanks.

1485
01:44:02,800 --> 01:44:03,910
Canopy back and locked.

1486
01:44:05,345 --> 01:44:07,480
[breathing heavily][wind whistling]

1487
01:44:13,486 --> 01:44:15,555
[grunting]

1488
01:44:15,722 --> 01:44:16,723
Deadstick.

1489
01:44:17,357 --> 01:44:18,558
Deadstick.

1490
01:44:19,659 --> 01:44:20,860
I'’m not gonna make
the clearing.

1491
01:44:21,270 --> 01:44:23,596
[Tom] Yes, you are.
Flaps down.

1492
01:44:23,763 --> 01:44:25,999
[breathing heavily]

1493
01:44:37,444 --> 01:44:38,812
You'’re at 200 feet.

1494
01:44:44,584 --> 01:44:45,952
She won'’t go any slower.

1495
01:44:48,888 --> 01:44:50,357
I can'’t stick with you.

1496
01:44:51,391 --> 01:44:53,930
That'’s the whole
nine yards, Tom.

1497
01:45:13,179 --> 01:45:15,281
[breathing heavily]

1498
01:45:16,649 --> 01:45:17,684

[breathing heavily]

1500
01:45:32,232 --> 01:45:35,635
Come on! Come on.
[grunts] Come on!

1501
01:45:43,900 --> 01:45:44,110
[shouts]

1502
01:45:48,848 --> 01:45:50,817
211, come in.

1503
01:45:52,819 --> 01:45:54,421
211, come in.

1504
01:45:58,458 --> 01:46:00,994
Tom, once Jesse gets cleared,
you scuttle that plane.

1505
01:46:01,161 --> 01:46:03,296
We can'’t have the Corsair
falling into enemy hands.

1506
01:46:05,565 --> 01:46:06,866
[breathing heavily]

1507
01:46:07,330 --> 01:46:08,234
He'’s not moving.

1508
01:46:09,769 --> 01:46:12,272
Come on, Jesse. Come on.

1509
01:46:16,443 --> 01:46:18,311
Come on, Jesse. Come on.

1510
01:46:29,923 --> 01:46:31,458
[sighs]

1511
01:46:32,692 --> 01:46:33,793
What'’s he doing?

1512
01:46:33,993 --> 01:46:35,628
Why isn'’t he getting out?

1513
01:46:35,795 --> 01:46:38,465
If we can see the smoke,
the Chinese can, too.

1514
01:46:40,500 --> 01:46:41,701
He should'’ve been out by now.

1515
01:46:42,602 --> 01:46:44,700
[Tom] He'’s stuck in there.

1516
01:46:44,270 --> 01:46:46,573
That fire is gonna
eat him alive.

1517
01:46:46,740 --> 01:46:48,808
Come on, Jesse.
Get out of there.

1518
01:46:53,913 --> 01:46:55,782
[breathing heavily]

1519
01:47:06,359 --> 01:47:07,894
I'’m gonna go get Jesse.

1520
01:47:08,610 --> 01:47:09,529
[Bill] Tom, you'’re gonna
get yourself killed.

1521
01:47:09,729 --> 01:47:10,897
[****] Don'’t crash
your own plane.

1522
01:47:11,640 --> 01:47:12,399
The hell are you doing,
Hudner?

1523
01:47:12,599 --> 01:47:14,367
Mayday, mayday, mayday.
Iroquois, 201.

1524
01:47:14,534 --> 01:47:17,737
RDF call. I have one,
soon-to-be two pilots down.

1525
01:47:17,904 --> 01:47:19,239
Request immediate assistance.

1526
01:47:19,406 --> 01:47:21,307
[Leyte CIC] 201,
you are in hostile airspace.

1527
01:47:21,474 --> 01:47:23,810
Search and rescue is still
estimating 30 minutes out.

1528
01:47:23,977 --> 01:47:24,911
Return to ship.

1529

[breathing heavily]

1530
01:47:27,814 --> 01:47:30,383
Tom, search and rescue
is 30 minutes out,

1531
01:47:30,550 --> 01:47:32,185
but help is on the way.

1532
01:47:33,987 --> 01:47:34,988
Be careful down there.

1533
01:47:36,656 --> 01:47:37,791
Yes, sir.

1534
01:47:40,760 --> 01:47:42,228

[panting][gunfire in distance]

1540
01:49:40,980 --> 01:49:43,516
You just ruined
a perfectly good
Corsair, Lieutenant.

1541
01:49:45,919 --> 01:49:48,121
I think that'’s going
in the mission report.

1542
01:49:48,321 --> 01:49:50,123
[chuckles]

1543
01:49:50,323 --> 01:49:51,825
That'’s a negative.
We can'’t send an Angel.

1544
01:49:51,991 --> 01:49:53,326
Our choppers
can'’t fly in the dark.

1545
01:49:53,493 --> 01:49:54,694
It'’s way too dangerous.

1546
01:49:56,930 --> 01:49:58,131
Who'’d they say is down?

1547
01:49:58,331 --> 01:49:59,666
[dispatch officer]
Two Corsairs from VF-32.

1548
01:49:59,833 --> 01:50:01,468

Stuck in good, Tom.

1553
01:50:14,647 --> 01:50:16,149
I'’m gonna put out this fire.

1554
01:50:16,349 --> 01:50:17,817
We'’ll get you
out of here, okay?

Should we get you
out of here?

1558
01:50:51,151 --> 01:50:52,252
Can we push?

1559
01:51:00,694 --> 01:51:01,728
One.

1560
01:51:02,829 --> 01:51:03,897
Two.

1561
01:51:04,640 --> 01:51:05,265
Three.

1562
01:51:07,300 --> 01:51:09,202
[metal creaking][Jesse grunts]

1563
01:51:11,304 --> 01:51:13,139
[both grunting]

1564
01:51:15,542 --> 01:51:17,610
[panting]

1565
01:51:17,777 --> 01:51:19,979
[breathing heavily]

1566
01:51:30,857 --> 01:51:31,925
Up and hard on my call.

1567
01:51:46,573 --> 01:51:47,907
[Jesse grunts]

1568
01:51:48,740 --> 01:51:50,310
[metal creaking]

1569
01:51:52,779 --> 01:51:55,582
[screaming]

1570
01:51:59,452 --> 01:52:01,121
[breathing heavily]

1571
01:52:44,864 --> 01:52:46,700
[explosions,
gunfire in distance]

1572
01:52:49,269 --> 01:52:51,404
[helicopter approaching]

1573
01:53:05,850 --> 01:53:06,252
Jesse, you hear that?

1574
01:53:08,121 --> 01:53:09,889
[breathing heavily]

1575
01:53:12,920 --> 01:53:13,293
They'’re coming for us.

1576
01:53:34,280 --> 01:53:35,882
[gasping]

1577
01:53:43,890 --> 01:53:46,292
[Tom] He'’s pinned inside.[Charlie] Take the axe.

1578
01:53:46,459 --> 01:53:49,462
We got enemy
not far away.
We gotta work fast!

1579
01:53:55,335 --> 01:53:57,470
[grunting]

1580
01:54:02,442 --> 01:54:04,100
[Jesse] Tom.[grunts]

1581
01:54:05,450 --> 01:54:06,212
Tom!

1582
01:54:14,354 --> 01:54:15,488
Just...

1583
01:54:17,390 --> 01:54:18,925
tell Daisy...

1584
01:54:22,362 --> 01:54:24,330
how much I love her.

1585
01:54:26,933 --> 01:54:28,368
We'’re getting you out of here.

1586
01:54:30,336 --> 01:54:31,337
[exhales]

1587
01:54:31,504 --> 01:54:32,739
[grunting]

1588
01:54:37,277 --> 01:54:38,345
Hudner!

1589
01:54:39,212 --> 01:54:40,347
[muffled] Hudner!

1590
01:54:45,385 --> 01:54:46,786
[shouts] Hudner!

1591
01:54:46,953 --> 01:54:49,890
[panting]

1592
01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:08,375
[sniffles]

1593
01:55:18,151 --> 01:55:19,552
We have to leave now.

1594
01:55:19,719 --> 01:55:20,887
[exhales]

1595
01:55:27,594 --> 01:55:29,229
I'’ll come back for you.

1596
01:56:28,288 --> 01:56:30,457
Tom, keep warm,
all right?

1597
01:56:30,623 --> 01:56:31,725
Coffee down there.

1598
01:56:31,891 --> 01:56:33,526
We'’ll get you
out of here soon.

1599
01:56:40,330 --> 01:56:42,168
[chattering]

1600
01:58:23,436 --> 01:58:24,738
We can'’t get Jesse.

1601
01:58:28,475 --> 01:58:30,100
The area is
totally overrun.

1602
01:58:30,176 --> 01:58:31,978
Search and rescue
is too dangerous.

1603
01:58:33,880 --> 01:58:36,349
Skipper has asked us
to scuttle both planes.

1604
01:58:40,520 --> 01:58:43,490
Hudner,
Doc has grounded you.

1605
01:58:49,596 --> 01:58:51,970
This is
a funeral flight, men.

1606
01:58:54,100 --> 01:58:56,169
This is your only chance
to say goodbye.

1607
01:59:04,310 --> 01:59:05,512
Wheels up in 15.

1608
02:00:01,868 --> 02:00:02,969
Oh, Tom...

1609
02:00:04,137 --> 02:00:05,438
I know.[sniffles]

1610
02:00:36,169 --> 02:00:38,571
Yesterday, we lost
a great aviator.

1611
02:00:39,539 --> 02:00:40,874
Ensign Jesse Brown.

1612
02:00:43,109 --> 02:00:45,111
His loss is felt
all across this ship,

1613
02:00:47,113 --> 02:00:49,582
and will certainly be felt
all across our nation.

1614
02:00:52,352 --> 02:00:54,154
Our country needed
Jesse Brown.

1615
02:01:06,866 --> 02:01:08,435
...Jesse.Don'’t worry about that.

1616
02:01:08,601 --> 02:01:10,300
[giggling, gasps]

1617
02:01:59,352 --> 02:02:01,421
[crying]

1618
02:03:05,151 --> 02:03:06,319
[passenger]
Thank you, ma'’am.

1619
02:03:09,122 --> 02:03:12,158
Mrs. Brown.
I'’m Seaman First Class
Clara Carrol.

1620
02:03:12,325 --> 02:03:13,760
It'’s a pleasure
meeting you.

1621
02:03:14,694 --> 02:03:15,862
Come right this way.

1622
02:04:07,514 --> 02:04:09,616
[chattering]

1623
02:04:12,419 --> 02:04:13,553
Excuse me.

1624
02:04:32,105 --> 02:04:33,206
Daisy.

1625
02:04:39,446 --> 02:04:40,947
These are yours.

1626
02:04:56,396 --> 02:04:59,332
I can imagine
this is a lot.

1627
02:04:59,532 --> 02:05:01,468
I can'’t imagine
how you must--I'’m okay.

1628
02:05:03,436 --> 02:05:04,671
But thank you.

1629
02:05:09,743 --> 02:05:10,977
[sighs]

1630
02:05:12,746 --> 02:05:14,614
I was afraid of
coming here today.

1631
02:05:16,490 --> 02:05:17,884
More afraid than
I'’ve been in my life.

1632
02:05:19,552 --> 02:05:22,188
To face you knowing I--Tom, I appreciate
what you did.

1633
02:05:24,891 --> 02:05:26,260
And I hope you know that.

1634
02:05:43,376 --> 02:05:45,378
I was with Jesse
before he died.

1635
02:05:48,348 --> 02:05:51,151
He was calm
throughout it all.

1636
02:05:53,319 --> 02:05:54,888
I was with him
to the very end.

1637
02:05:59,250 --> 02:06:01,610
The last words
out of his mouth
were for you.

1638
02:06:02,896 --> 02:06:04,197
He said,

1639
02:06:05,198 --> 02:06:07,233
"Just tell Daisy how
much I love her."

1640
02:06:11,671 --> 02:06:13,206
[sighs]

1641
02:06:17,410 --> 02:06:19,245
I'’m sorry
I couldn'’t save him.

1642
02:06:23,483 --> 02:06:25,218
Tom,
that was never your job.

1643
02:06:27,320 --> 02:06:29,422
Never anyone'’s job
to save Jesse.

1644
02:06:32,525 --> 02:06:34,127
I asked you
to be there for him.

1645
02:06:36,229 --> 02:06:37,564
And you were.

1646
02:07:07,360 --> 02:07:10,397
[Jesse] I'’m going to close now
and climb into the rack.

1647
02:07:11,731 --> 02:07:14,834
I honestly dread going to bed,
but I usually dream of you,

1648
02:07:15,100 --> 02:07:18,738
so I'’ll manage to make it
until we'’ll share our bed
together again.

1649
02:07:21,574 --> 02:07:22,709
Darling,

1650
02:07:24,177 --> 02:07:25,612
pray that it'’ll be soon.

1651
02:07:26,946 --> 02:07:28,114
I have to fly tomorrow...

1652
02:07:30,116 --> 02:07:31,951
but so far as that goes,

1653
02:07:32,118 --> 02:07:33,586
my heart hasn'’t been
to the earth

1654
02:07:33,753 --> 02:07:35,889
since the first time
you kissed me.

1655
02:07:37,957 --> 02:07:39,325
And when you love me,

1656
02:07:39,492 --> 02:07:43,763
you send it clear
out of this world.

1657
02:07:50,970 --> 02:07:52,739
I'’ll write you
as soon as I can.

1658
02:07:54,507 --> 02:07:55,508
I love you forever.

1659
02:08:04,517 --> 02:08:05,785
Your devoted husband,

1660
02:08:07,587 --> 02:08:10,560
lovingly
and completely yours.

1661
02:08:12,792 --> 02:08:13,993
Forever.

1662
02:08:17,364 --> 02:08:18,531
Jesse.
