Who, Mr. Roberts?
He's just tired, that's all.
1:17:07
Yeah, that's right. He's just tired.
1:17:09
Mr. Roberts, l got something here.
1:17:12
A little love letter from the Bureau came in
just this morning.
1:17:15
Get a load of this.
''To all ships and stations:
1:17:18
''Heightened war offensive has created
urgent need aboard combat ships...
1:17:22
''...for experienced officers.
1:17:23
''All commanding officers are directed
to forward with their endorsement...
1:17:28
''...all applications for transfer from officers
with 24 months sea duty.''
1:17:32
You've got 29 months.
1:17:33
Does that put old stupid
behind the eight ball or don't it?
1:17:36
Here's your letter, all typed up and ready
to go. Just the old John Hancock.
1:17:40
Go ahead, Mr. Roberts.
l want to hear him explode.
1:17:43
Yeah, he'll go right through the overhead!
1:17:46
l want to look it over first.
1:17:48
What's to look over?
lt's just a standard form--
1:17:50
l'm not going to stand here and argue!
l told you l want to look it over.
1:17:54
Get back to your typewriter
before l put you on report!
1:18:03
All right, don't just stand here.
1:18:32
...from the headquarters
of the Allied Command in Europe.
1:18:35
I repeat,
there is no official announcement yet.
1:18:38
The report that the war
in Europe has ended...
1:18:41
...has come from only one correspondent.
1:18:43
It has not been confirmed by other
correspondents or by Allied Headquarters.
1:18:47
But here is one highly intriguing fact:
1:18:49
That report has not been denied.
1:18:52
Turn that thing off, will you, Doc?
1:18:56
Has Doug ever said anything to you
about wanting a promotion?
