Today you are full-fledged ensigns.
Three months ago, you assembled here | from all walks of life. -
- Field, factory, | office and college.
Each of you knew | what the fighting was about.
Each of you knew that the American | way of life must be defended.
From here on, your education | must continue in the school of war.
As an ensign | in the United States Navy. -
- You go down to the sea to fight in | the toughest conflict of all time.
We Americans are confident that | you will serve the Navy with honour.
Good luck and good hunting.
Willie, over here!
- Darling, I'm so proud of you. | - Congratulations, Willie.
I hope the Navy | makes full use of your abilities.
Perhaps I could help you | be placed somewhere else.
Good luck for now.
Mother, I'll have to skip your party | tonight. The fellas are celebrating.
But the party's in your honour.
Your friends will forgive you. | You can call them from the house.
I'll see you at ten.
May...
- You were wonderful. | - Your mother let you out?
I had to be with her. I should | have told you yesterday. I'm sorry.
- Get me a drink, then we'll fight. | - Leo, two Scotch and waters.
Let's not spoil the night. | I've only got a couple of days left.
- I'm leaving Sunday. | - How do you expect me to feel?
You left me standing there alone. | Why couldn't I meet your mother?
- There's a time for everything. | - I'm sure.
To the most important woman | in your life... Mom.
- May, stop it. | - I'm sorry, Willie.
I didn't mean to ruin your evening. | I just bruise easily.
What do we do to celebrate?
We can go to the Fairmont... | Or we don't have to go to a club.
- Meaning what? | - I've only got 48 hours.
- Willie, don't. | - May, I love you.
All right. | Will you marry me?
If there were more time...
I didn't expect you to.
I forgot who I was. Just another | nightclub singer for a big weekend.
I don't want any more of it. | Not another minute.
- Good luck, Mr Keith. | - Thanks, George.
Goodbye, Mother.
Cable me from Pearl Harbour. | Your ship's been in lots of battles.
Do you have enough spending money? | You'd better take this extra $100.
- Mother, please don't cry. | - You're all I have left.
Promise me you'll be careful. Don't | volunteer or do anything dangerous.
I won't. I promise. | Goodbye, sweetheart.
Request permission | to come on board.
- The Caine's a real beauty. | - The Caine is the inboard ship.
This way, Keith.
Watch that enthusiasm. | This is the Caine.
- I'm sorry, I lost my footing. | - This is Lieutenant Tom Keefer.
Your orders. They transform | ex-civilians into men without minds.
- I hate to do this to you. | - Gangway, lady with a baby!
Meatball, Horrible, | pick up Mr Keith's gear.
This is our executive officer, | Steve Maryk.
Steve's the guy | who gets things done.
Come on, let's meet the captain.
- Watch your feet, sir! | - Come on, Keith!
It's a mistake scraping this ship. | The rust is keeping the water out.
- What do you want? | - He's here, sir.
- Bring him in. | - In here, Keith.
Captain DeVriess, | this is Ensign Keith.
May I see your orders, | or are they a military secret?
I'm sorry, sir.
Princeton, 1941...
Top five percent | in midshipman's school...
Pretty good background, | pretty good record.
- Disappointed it's a minesweeper? | - To be honest, yes, sir.
- You saw yourself on a battleship? | - I had hoped that...
I only hope that | you're good enough for the Caine.
- I'll try to be worthy of the job. | - The Caine is a beaten-up tub.
After 18 months of combat, it takes | 24 hours a day to keep her together.
