Quote context

[...]

- I'm sure you're aware of Washington's opinion about this Midway invasion business.

- Yes. They think it's an enemy ruse.

- An elaborate phoney, sir.

- Go on.

- Could we speak in private?

- If you'd feel more comfortable.

- Thank you.

- Admiral, these enemy radio intercepts that your intelligence unit has been accumulating...

- Very detailed, aren't they?

- Too damn detailed, Admiral.

- Do you remember what happened just before December 7th?

- The Japanese flooded the airways with fake messages.

- Yes, these could be carbon copies.

- Washington's convinced that Yamamoto's feeding this stuff to you in order to cover his real intentions.

- Very definite possibility.

- Well, then, sir, how can you still insist...

- Because it's my judgment this information is factual.

- I am convinced Yamamoto's target is Midway.

- But if you're wrong, Admiral, if you send our carriers into a Japanese ambush, the entire West Coast and Hawaiian Islands will be wide open for invasion.

- I'm fully aware of that, Captain. You're saying the safe play is to defend the home folks first.

- With respects, Admiral, it's the smart play.

- Captain, if we surprise the enemy, catch him where he doesn't think we'll be, we can drive him back 3000 miles. And keep him pinned till we're ready to take him on in his own front yard.
