Capt. Dan Craig
- Lt. Ellen Foster: You look lovely.
- Capt. Dan Craig: A marine's not supposed to look lovely.
- Lt. Ellen Foster: You do.
- Capt. Dan Craig: Don't like this... waiting.
- Lt. Tony 'Junior' Hewitt: No.
- [pauses]
- Lt. Tony 'Junior' Hewitt: Funny thing.
- Capt. Dan Craig: What?
- Lt. Tony 'Junior' Hewitt: Waiting. You ever think you've spent a lot of your life waiting? Even when you're busy, you're still waiting.
- Capt. Dan Craig: For what?
- Lt. Tony 'Junior' Hewitt: Whatever you want next, I guess. When you're a kid, it's waiting till you can go to school. Then you wait till you can get out. You wait till you're a man, can be your own boss. You wait for some girl to get around to marrying you. You wait for a commission, then for a chance to get sent out.
- Capt. Dan Craig: Then you lie here and wait for Japs.
- Lt. Tony 'Junior' Hewitt: Nutty idea, I guess.
- Capt. Dan Craig: No.
- [pauses]
- Capt. Dan Craig: No, I know what you mean. It's... it's the one thing that gets me, I don't like it.
- [Junior sighs]
