Captain, a toast.
:53:35
To the men still on patrol.
:53:45
For their courage,
I nominated these men...
:53:50
for the title
Hero of the Soviet Union.
:53:57
But the committee ruled...
:54:02
that because
it was not wartime...
:54:10
because it was
merely an accident...
:54:14
they were not worthy
of the title Hero.
:54:25
What good are honors
from such people?
:54:32
These men sacrificed...
:54:34
not for a medal...
:54:39
but because,
when the time came...
:54:44
it was their duty...
:54:48
not to the navy...
or to the state...
:54:56
but to us...
