:40:01
- I've carried on much too long with all this.
- Mother.
:40:04
No, do go.
Honestly, I'd much rather be alone.
:40:06
Really, I mean it.
:40:09
You're a kind man, Commander.
I hope you'll come again.
:40:12
Thank you, ma'am. I'd like to.
:40:33
At the same time, Jesse,
it has to be a neap tide...
:40:36
so we can unload all the Army's heavy
stuff with a minimum of open beach.
:40:42
Jesse, D-day has to be June 5 or 6.
:40:46
We won't repeat these tidal conditions
for half a year, at least with a moon.
:40:51
That'll put us into the winter.
:40:53
Jesse, why don't we
knock off this briefing?
:40:56
- We've been at it since 3:00.
- Yeah, I'm tired.
:41:00
It took me six months to get that
portable port plan to the Pentagon...
:41:04
let alone the British.
:41:06
I haven't had more than
two or three hours' sleep a night...
:41:10
since Florence died. I'm really worn out.
:41:13
Why don't we get a couple of beers
and get a decent night's sleep?
:41:17
Yeah. Let's really tie one on tonight.
:41:21
Bus, call Charlie Madison.
Tell him to set up a little bar in a hotel.
:41:24
Yes, sir.
:41:30
You remember we weren't called
midshipmen in those days...
:41:33
we were called naval cadets.
:41:36
Yeah!
:41:40
This was before Bancroft Hall
was turned into a dormitory...
:41:44
because they found
the O.O.D. Sitting there with his...
:41:51
You remember when they christened
the canvas!
:41:55
Anyway, "Hey, you cadet,"
said this jimmy leg.
