hwp Admiral Yamamoto, please.
He asked not to be disturbed. It is most urgent.
Admiral Yamamoto?
Tokyo has been bombed. When?
15 minutes ago. Yokohama, Kawasaki and Yokosuka were also bombed.
His Imperial Majesty is unharmed. I personally phoned the palace.
Damage? Very little to Tokyo. No reports from the other cities,
but it seems probable that they too were barely scratched.
How did they do it, Watanabe?
They launched long-range B- bombers from their carriers.
They came in at treetop level, and were first seen over the city.
Tokyo... bombed!
Sir, I understand your concern for the Emperors safety, but...
You may speak freely, Commander. This raid is a blessing in disguise.
The Americans have proven you correct.
Our homeland is not invulnerable. After today, the General Staff
will certainly approve your operation M-I.
Lieutenant-Colonel Doolittle led the raid with a force of B- s
and an all-volunteer crew of airmen.
Most of the planes carried -pound demolition bombs
and single incendiary clusters,
which were dropped on oil stores, factories and military sites in Tokyo.
A few planes made minor strikes on Kobe, Yokohama and Nagoya,
with one bomb hitting the Japanese carrier Ryuko.
News of this raid has improved American and allied morale,
while at the same time constituting a blow to Japanese prestige.
Thanks, Sir.
At his press conference today, President Roosevelt was asked:
"Can you tell us, where did those planes start from and go to?"
He replied: "Yes, the time has come to tell you.
They came from our new secret base at Shangri-la..."
Well, my God, its Captain Garth!
I was expecting some junior officer. This is an unexpected honor!
Yeah, like hell it is, Joe!
Admiral Nimitz sent me over to... To chew my ass off, huh?
Officially, Im supposed to question your estimate of Japanese intentions.
Why so grim, Matt? Doolittles attack should we thrilled you CinCPAC people.
Not by a long shot. That damn raid could boomerang on us.
We only got carriers in the Pacific. We need to rebuild.
Now the boss is afraid Yamamotos going to jump back at us. But where?
We got the latest intercepts here.
Heres a list of Japanese ships
we suspect will be assigned to amphib operations south of Rabaul.
The Coral Sea! Thats where we think theyll strike next.
But something else is stirring, something out our way.
We need facts, not guesswork.
Matt, we cracked Yamamotos code, but we cant just reel it off.
We get a flicker here and a glimmer there.
How much can you decipher? Hell, maybe...
Really decipher. Ten percent.
per... Thats one word in . For Christs sake, youre guessing!
We like to call it "analysis".
Alright. What are these indications that somethings brewing out our way?
Theres no hard clues yet. What do you have, Joe?
Increased radio traffic between Yamamotos commanders. Thats all?
Could be significant. At least I feel that somethings stirring.
Alright,
Ill take that list of Jap ships you "feel" are headed for Coral Sea.
Nimitz may send Fletchers task force to see whats going on.
Well see how your -percent guesswork pays off, huh?
As a back-room code-cracker I thank you, Matt.
Joe, could I ask you something very personal? Certainly.
It really stinks down here. How often do your people take a bath?
Bath? God, I dont know... What day is it?
Forget it, Joe.
Any new Yamamoto intercepts?
Heres a first mention of "A-F", whatever that means.
A-F?
Captain!
Tom!
Dad...
My God, Tom. When did you get in? I didnt know...
Last night. This is beautiful. Why didnt you write that you were coming?
Ive been assigned to Kaneohe. Well, Ill finally see some of you.
Three years!
You look great, Tom. So do you, Dad.
Kaneohe, are you? What squadron? VF- .
Youll like it. Your C.O. used to be my wing-man on the old Langley.
Could we talk somewhere?
Sure... Here.
I phoned you from Guam the day you graduated.
Yeah, I heard later. Im sorry I missed the call.
I guess your mother was there?
Yeah. How is she?
Recovered from the divorce, I guess. Thats good.
I was hoping maybe we could... Dad,
Ive fallen in love with a Japanese girl. I want to marry her.
I need your help.
I damn well guess you do, Tiger.
Shes been arrested in Honolulu.
How did you manage that?
In San Diego and getting mixed up with a Japanese girl in Honolulu?
She was a student in San Diego. And she was arrested here?
Her parents live here. She wouldnt marry me without their permission.
Apparently, the FBI has something on her folks, so they got picked up.
Well, that figures.
Haruko was born here. Shes as loyal as you or me.
Anyway, the minute I got in I went to see where theyre being held.
She wouldnt see me. Why not?
I dont know.
She and her parents will be sent back to the mainland in a few days.
It sticks in your throat that I want to marry a Japanese girl?
Sticks in your..? Dont give me that "racial bigot" crap.
I dont care what color she is. Its not the point...
Christ almighty!
months after Pearl Harbor! Boy, you have lousy timing.
Whats her name? Ill see if I can get her F
