(Jim) It's 38 days now

since we left Pearl Harbor.

I know how some of us felt then.

I think I know how some of us feel now.

But let no one here,

no one aboard this boat...

...ever say we didn't have a captain.

Unto Almighty God we commend

the soul of our shipmate departed...

...and we commit his body to the deep

in the sure and certain hope...

...of the resurrection unto eternal life...

...when the sea shall give up her dead

in the life of the world to come.
