It was - 1943, October. Does this sound... crazy? You know, or is this sort of thing possible now? I can't believe this! Germany and Japan are our friends, and Russia's the enemy now? You know, I got it all figured out... Navy owes me 40 years back pay. Other Sheriff Bates: We've all got problems, honey. But we don't solve 'em with guns. Dialogue Jim Parker: Isn't that - water up ahead? David Herdeg: No. This is a desert. And that's a mirage. Jim Parker: [later, walking through the flooded plain] How much longer you think this mirage is gonna last? David Herdeg: [sees Ronald Reagan giving a speech on television] Hey, I know this guy. Is this another movie? Allison Hayes: [smiles] No, David, it's not another movie. Major Clark: So, what did you think of 1984? David Herdeg: Television was great. Major Clark: You didn't see enough of it. Allison Hayes: Why'd you join the Navy? David Herdeg: You know the old saying: girl in every port. Taglines An adventure beyond time.
