:35:00
Captain Romagna will get things moving.
:35:07
Nothing, sir.
:35:24
Signal Admiralty, Rome.
:35:27
Still no contact, Italia airship.
:35:30
Request instructions.
:35:31
Instructions? You signaled for instructions?
:35:35
That's right. What would you have done?
:35:37
- Something!
- Yes. Initiative.
:35:41
General Nobile,
I was 37 years a serving officer.
:35:44
I was never in any way famous.
I was never, as you are...
:35:47
the subject of newspaper articles
or public debate.
:35:50
- But I never lost a ship!
- You never did anything, Romagna.
:35:53
Without orders, no.
:35:55
But in all my life,
I never disobeyed an order.
:35:58
Can you say as much?
:36:01
I never lost a ship. I never lost a man.
:36:04
You didn't find any, either, did you?
:36:06
With what?
And where should I have looked for them?
:36:12
We had no means of knowing
what time they crashed...
:36:15
within three hours.
:36:17
You were last heard from here.
:36:19
If you were running against the storm
and trying to make Kingsbay...
:36:22
you could've been
around Franz Josef Land here.
:36:25
But if you were running towards Greenland
with the gale behind you...
:36:28
then you were over the Arctic Ocean here.
:36:30
Within that area.
Two million square kilometers.
:36:34
You could have been anywhere,
if you were still alive.
:36:37
So you assumed that we were dead?
:36:38
I made no assumption.
I was waiting for orders.
:36:41
For five days!
:36:43
We were still waiting for you there,
less than 100 miles from Kingsbay.
:36:47
Starving. And you were waiting for orders?
:36:58
A red tent.
