- Admiral Nagumo Staff Officer: "From Admiral Yamamoto, Commander-in-Chief, Combined Fleet, to Admiral Nagumo, Third Fleet, climb Mount Niitaka."
- Admiral Chuici Nagumo: Hostilities will begin on December 7th - exactly as scheduled.
- Admiral Nagumo Staff Officer: The men are in good spirits, sir. They are eager to go.
- Admiral Chuici Nagumo: Yes. They are eager because they do not know the taste of battle.
- Admiral Nagumo Staff Officer: We cannot turn back now. We must destroy the American carriers and their dry docks - no matter how long it takes!
- Admiral Chuici Nagumo: You're wrong! Our mission has been completely accomplished. This task force is vital to us. It is my duty to return it intact. This war is just beginning. We have a long way to go.
- Admiral Chuici Nagumo: The Commander-in-Chief has sent a message wishing us good luck. That, plus the Imperial Proclamation has undoubtedly stirred your loyalty to the Empire. The success of this mission depends on surprise. If we achieve it, the code words "Tora, Tora, Tora," will be sent out.
