:19:09
I overbid?
:19:10
Let's just say you have unbridled courage.
:19:18
I don't like the way the Navy's publicity
is being handled in Overlord.
:19:22
I want extreme measures taken to
publicize the Navy's role in this invasion.
:19:26
The President supports me in this.
:19:28
Yeah, we received your cables, Jesse...
:19:30
but I don't know what you mean
by extreme measures.
:19:33
This is going to be a bloodbath.
:19:34
I want a Marine division
to be the first assault wave.
:19:37
You're not going to drag
that old chestnut in.
:19:39
The Marines are traditional shock troops,
you know it.
:19:41
Not in the European theater
of operations, they're not.
:19:45
You Navy guys get all the headlines
in the South Pacific.
:19:49
But Europe's an Army show.
:19:51
It's been understood
from the beginning, Jesse.
:19:54
I've written the Supreme Commander
about this.
:19:56
That's one of the reasons he's out of town.
:19:57
You must be off your rocker, Jesse,
if you think...
:20:00
assault changes can be made
at this stage of preparation.
:20:03
You know when the balloon's going up.
:20:04
What balloon?
:20:06
I've been instructed to say...
:20:08
that we're going to put on a few more
Navy staff officers...
:20:10
at supreme headquarters.
:20:12
We're going to push the PRO people
to send out more Navy releases.
:20:15
The Supreme Commander
wants it clear that he considers...
:20:18
this inter-service competitiveness
in very bad taste.
:20:21
He's having enough trouble
keeping the English and French in line.
:20:24
You're down four, Willie.
:20:26
Doubled, redoubled, and vulnerable.
:20:29
Marine division!
You must be losing your mind, Jesse.
:20:34
- Who deals?
- The young lady, I think.
:20:39
Clear away that table, please.
:20:41
General Waterson? Your car is ready, sir.
:20:43
- Thank you.
- Good night, Sheila.
:20:52
- Champagne, Charlie.
- It's being chilled.
:20:53
It'll be outside your door in half an hour.
:20:56
Where...
:20:57
I sent her in.
