Away All Boats1956

Capt. Jebediah S. Hawks:
I assumed you, of all the officers aboard, would most understand my motives for having this sailboat constructed. I was mistaken, Mr. Fraser.

Lieut. Fraser:
What's that supposed to mean?

Lieut. Dave MacDougall:
You're no veteran, not really. You've just put in a lot of time in this Navy.

Lieut. Fraser:
Now look, MacDougall!

Lieut. Dave MacDougall:
You look! You're closer to the crew than any other officer aboard, yet you're blind to what's been happening to them. The men have been coming unglued from too many months at sea. They'd lost their combat efficiency. They needed something to fix their hate on so that they'd stop fighting among themselves. The captain gave it to them. Himself, and this sailboat. You were worried about the boats being ready. They'll be ready, Mister. But more important, the crew will be ready.
