Flight Of The Intruder Page #15

Are you special?

1546

01:
17:54,565 -- 01:17:57,500

You're just

a sensitive fella here.

1547

01:
17:57,568 -- 01:18:00,833

I'd like to take you home

to my mama.

1548

01:
18:00,905 -- 01:18:04,897

And as for you,

1549

01:
18:04,974 -- 01:18:09,308

you can lead the Manson family

now that Charlie's in jail.

1550

01:
18:09,379 -- 01:18:11,779

You'd like that,

wouldn't you?

1551

01:
18:11,848 -- 01:18:14,544

You're a maniac.

1552

01:
18:14,651 -- 01:18:18,610

They ought to study you, Cole.

1553

01:
18:29,298 -- 01:18:30,765

Are there times

1554

01:
18:30,833 -- 01:18:34,166

when you have the

moral obligation

1555

01:
18:34,236 -- 01:18:36,169

not to follow orders?

1556

01:
18:36,237 -- 01:18:39,035

Of course there are.

1557

01:
18:39,107 -- 01:18:43,567

The navy didn't tell you

to strafe women and children

1558

01:
18:43,678 -- 01:18:47,876

or do anything that violated

your conscience.

1559

01:
18:47,982 -- 01:18:52,213

But, you heroes,

you do not have the right

1560

01:
18:52,285 -- 01:18:55,015

to make up your own orders!

1561

01:
18:55,088 -- 01:18:58,819

You have abused my trust

and the trust of every officer

1562

01:
18:58,892 -- 01:19:00,655

in this squadron!

1563

01:
19:06,866 -- 01:19:11,599

You'll be confined to your

quarters until tomorrow morning,

1564

01:
19:11,670 -- 01:19:15,663

when you will accompany me

on the cod to Subic Bay

1565

01:
19:15,741 -- 01:19:20,075

for inquiry into

court-martial charges.

1566

01:
19:20,146 -- 01:19:21,443

Get out my sight.

1567

01:
19:21,514 -- 01:19:22,980

Dismissed.

1568

01:
19:49,840 -- 01:19:51,740

Be seated.

1569

01:
20:01,517 -- 01:20:05,647

I hope you realize that now

is the time to come to Jesus.

1570

01:
20:12,594 -- 01:20:15,757

Anyone giving me less than

100% proof will find himself

1571

01:
20:15,831 -- 01:20:20,859

in a place like Adack, Alaska,

or Diego Garcia.

1572

01:
20:20,969 -- 01:20:23,631

You will be there

awaiting court-martial

1573

01:
20:23,738 -- 01:20:25,705

or resignation processing.

1574

01:
20:25,806 -- 01:20:27,967

It will take

three to four years

1575

01:
20:28,042 -- 01:20:29,669

to process a resignation.

1576

01:
20:29,743 -- 01:20:31,677

Do I make myself clear?

1577

01:
20:33,047 -- 01:20:37,143

All right, what about it,

Mr. Grafton?

1578

01:
20:37,218 -- 01:20:39,686

There was only one mission, sir.

1579

01:
20:39,753 -- 01:20:41,617

That right, Mr. Cole?

1580

01:
20:44,524 -- 01:20:46,924

That's about the size of it.

1581

01:
20:47,026 -- 01:20:49,085

We did it ourselves.

1582

01:
20:49,195 -- 01:20:53,097

Normally, I'm blabby,

but I sat on this one.

1583

01:
20:56,602 -- 01:20:58,661

You took an oath, Mr. Cole.

1584

01:
20:58,737 -- 01:21:00,967

You, too, Mr. Grafton.

1585

01:
21:01,039 -- 01:21:04,338

You took an oath

to defend the constitution

1586

01:
21:04,409 -- 01:21:08,641

and obey the orders of

the officers appointed over you.

1587

01:
21:08,714 -- 01:21:12,080

It's the same oath that every

officer in the navy has taken

1588

01:
21:12,149 -- 01:21:13,912

for damn near 200 years.

1589

01:
21:14,085 -- 01:21:15,609

And during all that time,

1590

01:
21:15,720 -- 01:21:18,154

the military has

obeyed the civilians

1591

01:
21:18,222 -- 01:21:20,281

over the elected government.

1592

01:
21:20,358 -- 01:21:23,191

Now, they might not

have always been right

1593

01:
21:23,261 -- 01:21:28,357

or wise or even smart,

but they were elected.

1594

01:
21:30,934 -- 01:21:34,233

Any other way, and the United

States would be nothing more

1595

01:
21:34,304 -- 01:21:36,795

than another two-bit

military dictatorship.

1596

01:
21:38,241 -- 01:21:40,402

Why did you do this, Cole?

1597

01:
21:40,510 -- 01:21:42,705

An officer

with your fine record?

1598

01:
21:42,779 -- 01:21:45,747

Did you think you were going

to win the war?

1599

01:
21:45,848 -- 01:21:50,615

Frankly, sir, I think

we're going to lose this one.

1600

01:
21:53,088 -- 01:21:54,919

But I do love the work.

1601

01:
21:56,926 -- 01:22:01,453

Mr. Cole, you may find

that amusing, but we don't.

1602

01:
22:01,529 -- 01:22:04,555

Gentlemen, this is our country

you're messing with.

1603

01:
22:11,472 -- 01:22:14,440

Well, Mr. Grafton, you have

an attentive audience here.

1604

01:
22:14,508 -- 01:22:16,135

Perhaps you can explain to us

1605

01:
22:16,209 -- 01:22:19,076

why you thought a one-plane war

was the way to go.

1606

01:
22:25,085 -- 01:22:29,886

Well, sir, we bomb worthless

targets night after night--

1607

01:
22:29,989 -- 01:22:32,685

I mean, three tents

under a tree...

1608

01:
22:32,792 -- 01:22:35,158

sampan repair yards that have

been hit ten times already.

1609

01:
22:35,227 -- 01:22:36,125

Sir, you know the list

1610

01:
22:36,195 -- 01:22:39,323

better than I do.

1611

01:
22:39,398 -- 01:22:43,562

My first bombardier and 50,000

other Americans are dead and...

1612

01:
22:43,636 -- 01:22:45,728

can anyone tell me why?

1613

01:
22:45,804 -- 01:22:48,864

I realize that

I'm Lieutenant Nobody.

1614

01:
22:48,940 -- 01:22:52,273

I'm... I'm not really sure

about anything anymore.

1615

01:
22:52,344 -- 01:22:54,574

This war's become

very confusing.

1616

01:
22:54,646 -- 01:22:57,774

Nobody... nobody wants

to fight in it.

1617

01:
22:57,882 -- 01:23:00,407

Nobody seems to want to win it.

1618

01:
23:00,518 -- 01:23:03,452

Maybe it never should

have happened,

1619

01:
23:03,554 -- 01:23:05,920

but people do die in it.

1620

01:
23:06,023 -- 01:23:10,323

Maybe for me, it got personal,

because I do know the difference

1621

01:
23:10,394 -- 01:23:13,591

between dying for something

and dying for nothing.

1622

01:
23:15,499 -- 01:23:17,489

I know that's no excuse.

1623

01:
23:17,567 -- 01:23:19,364

I... I know that.

1624

01:
23:21,804 -- 01:23:24,364

And I broke the faith,

and for that, I am truly wrong.

1625

01:
23:26,976 -- 01:23:29,274

Perhaps I should hang.

1626

01:
23:29,345 -- 01:23:30,972

Hanging, Mr. Grafton,

1627

01:
23:31,047 -- 01:23:34,015

is no longer a

punishment much in use.

1628

01:
23:37,119 -- 01:23:40,555

But a prison term

in Leavenworth is,

1629

01:
23:40,622 -- 01:23:42,089

or a dishonorable discharge

1630

01:
23:42,157 -- 01:23:46,218

if a court-martial

should so decide.

1631

01:
23:46,328 -- 01:23:49,319

But whatever happens,

I think it's safe to say

1632

01:
23:49,430 -- 01:23:51,864

that your career

in the navy is over.

1633

01:
23:51,932 -- 01:23:53,559

The only question's how.

1634

01:
24:15,188 -- 01:24:16,815

Well, hell, I guess...

1635

01:
24:16,923 -- 01:24:19,789

I guess I got you

into this, didn't l?

1636

01:
24:19,858 -- 01:24:23,157

I don't see it that way.

1637

01:
24:23,228 -- 01:24:26,789

Well, it was my fight

and my fault.

1638

01:
24:26,865 -- 01:24:28,662

It was just your idea.

1639

01:
24:28,734 -- 01:24:30,497

It was my choice.

1640

01:
24:30,569 -- 01:24:32,730
