Billlis to nurse: that female jerk!
(Brakcett Harbision walk down)
Billis:I beg pardon sir, could I speak to you a minute??
Who's that?
-
Billis sir Luther Billis.
- What do you want Billis.
- we're moving out pretty soon.
-
Billis: Yes sir I know........ You could drop us in three rubber boats on different sides of the island. confuse the hell out of the Japs.. GET THE PICTURE?
- It's very fine of you Billis
- But you're too late for diversionary activity.
- that started this morning before the sun came up.
- Operation Alligator got under way.
- Landings were made on 15 Japanese islands.
-
Billis: I think that is very unfair
Harbision: the admiral agrees with you Billis, Marie Island was the first Island they hit.
Billis: Did they get him? Is he alive?
- We don't know.
- Lt Buss Adams flew up there to find out.
- He has not come back.
- But if the Frenchman's dead, it is unfair.
- It's too dammed bad if a part of this huge operation couldn't have saved one of the two guys who made it at all possible.
-
Steeves. Captain Brackett sir the launch is ready to take you to your ship.
Billis: You got a ship sir?
- Yes Harbision and I've got a ship.
- I'm no longer a lousy Island Commander.
- Come on Bill.
-
Billis: S'long Captain Brackett.
- S'long Billis.
- Oh, by the way,
- I never did get you in the brig, did I?
-
Billis: No haha
Oh I forgot.
-
Billis: Forgot what sir?
- Your unit'll be on our ship.
- I'll be seeing all of you.
- get the picture.
