:15:00
I should be very angry
if they called you the old man.
:15:03
As a matter of fact,
your men adore you.
:15:06
Well, I don't think I'd go quite that far,
Mrs. Rogers, but thank you.
:15:11
- My name is Pat.
- Thank you, Pat.
:15:14
No, don't go in just yet. Please.
:15:17
I don't get an opportunity like this
very often...
:15:20
...to talk to such an attractive
young lady.
:15:24
Must be wretched having to keep
yourself isolated from your men.
:15:30
I see you have a knack
for reading people's minds.
:15:34
You must be a very wise girl, Pat.
:15:36
It's not hard to see a lonely person...
:15:39
...even though he is surrounded
by 900 Marines.
:15:42
I imagine you know what
it's like to be homesick.
:15:47
I didn't realize it showed.
:15:50
- Would you like to see...?
- Your children?
:15:53
No, we have no children.
This is my wife.
:16:00
She's lovely.
:16:02
I know how you must miss her.
:16:04
Jean has a lot in common
with you New Zealand girls.
:16:08
This war has done that.
:16:10
You're all soldiers' wives here.
:16:13
It's funny, she could always
read my mind too.
:16:18
In a great many ways,
you remind me of my wife.
:16:26
Well, I'm sorry, did...?
:16:29
Did I say something wrong?
:16:31
I'm not fit to remind you
of your wife, colonel.
:16:34
I'm so ashamed.
:16:37
I can't use the war as
an excuse anymore, I know that.
:16:40
But this chance with Andy,
I thought it would mean happiness.
:16:43
It was a straw, and I grabbed for it.
:16:46
I see.
:16:48
Well, I didn't...
:16:51
You're not the only person in this world
who ever grabbed for a straw.
:16:56
We all do it sometime in our lives.
:16:59
But in our mind, in our conscience...
