:52:19
I'd like to be up to my neck
in ocean about now.
:52:22
Me, too.
:52:25
What's the matter?
:52:26
I was thinking of the time the Japs
caught us swimming in New Guinea.
:52:30
You were laughing like an idiot and
all the time I was looking for my pants.
:52:33
You were yelling,
"Take cover! Take cover!"
:52:36
- You could have used a little yourself.
- I never did find those pants.
:52:39
We've had a few laughs.
:52:41
It would be swell if we could
take our next leave together.
:52:44
Yeah. How about Frisco?
Shrimp, clam, lobster.
:52:46
Yeah, and a steak smothered in chops.
Oh, boy.
:53:02
It's the old strip all right.
:53:04
Habeda, scout.
:53:09
- Hicks, you and Smithy look up that way.
- Yes, sir.
:53:22
All right, dish out the Atabrine tablets.
:53:24
Everybody okay?
:53:26
Okay? Easiest war I ever been in.
:53:28
What is it today, Hogan?
:53:29
Chicken dinner with dumplings.
These are the dumplings.
:53:34
What time are those planes
due to pick us up?
:53:36
Ten minutes.
:53:38
- Get a story, Mr. Williams?
- I got more than that.
:53:41
I don't mind telling you gentlemen,
there were some moments there...
:53:44
when I wished I was somewhere else.
Almost anywhere else would have done.
:53:48
If you could be someplace else right now,
Charlie, where would it be?
:53:52
I don't know. A football game.
:53:54
How about you?
:53:56
If I had my choice
I'd be sitting on a nice, soft stool...
:53:59
in the National Press Club
in Washington, D. C...
