:32:15
According to the orders, we're to pick
up the lieutenant here at point x-ray.
:32:19
A PBY boat will meet us at 1430.
:32:22
Why are they flying him down?
:32:24
Save us going out of our way
to pick him up. Time's important.
:32:28
- Who is he?
- Aerology specialist.
:32:30
North Pacific area.
:32:33
All we have to do
is put him ashore in Japan.
:32:40
You are showing signs
of needing a sun lamp.
:32:43
From now on, sign up.
Everybody, once a day.
:32:46
- You ever want to be a real doctor, Pills?
- Yeah.
:32:49
I was one of those wise guys
who didn't know where he was going.
:32:52
Funny place to find out, on submarines.
:32:55
- What college did you go to?
- California.
:32:58
Only a year. Then I signed up.
:33:00
I had an A in chemistry,
so they made me a pharmacist's mate.
:33:03
Ain't it wonderful what
an education will do?
:33:06
When I got out of third grade,
I took a job at Coney Island.
:33:09
- Frying hot dogs.
- You should have stuck to hot dogs.
:33:13
Where's that half-baked barber?
:33:15
You finishing college
when the war's over?
:33:18
Yep. Putting my pay
and a half in war bonds.
:33:20
Working my way
through college underwater.
:33:24
Pills, if anything happened
to us while we're out on patrol...
:33:28
...if we got conked off, you figure
we'd see our folks in the hereafter?
:33:32
I wouldn't bank on it.
:33:34
My old man wouldn't be overjoyed to see
me. He never thought I was much good.
:33:38
- I like to think we got souls...
- I don't know.
:33:40
All those guys I cut up at school,
never found a soul inside.
:33:44
Well, what does that prove, Pills?
:33:46
Say you trust a guy.
:33:48
You can't see the trust,
but it's there.
:33:50
- I'm from Missouri, Mike.
- I'm not exactly religious.
:33:54
- But don't you think God...
- No, I don't.
:33:56
My angle is, I only believe
what I can see.
:33:59
- Are you an atheist?
- Call it what you like.
