Quote context
[...]
- We know when and from where each unit sailed.
- My best guess is they'll hit Midway from the northwest, but there's no intelligence to support that.
- Why not head northwest, hit them head -on?
- You know, there's just a chance that Washington may be right.
- You think Hawaii and the West Coast could be the real target?
- Well, it really doesn't matter, provided I'm in a position to cut them off, if they do move east.
- If it's Midway, I'll bushwhack them.
- All right. Jack, you're senior. You'll take overall command when you two join up.
