Quotes:

Captain James T. Kirk: Damn it, Bones, I need you. Badly!

Captain James T. Kirk: Evaluation, Mr. Spock.::Commander Spock: Fascinating.

Commander Spock: It's life, Captain, but not life as we know it.

[Kirk apologizes for assuming command over Captain Decker]::Captain James T. Kirk: I'm sorry, Will.::Commander Willard Decker: No, Admiral. I don't think you're sorry. Not one damned bit. I remember when you recommended me for this command. You told me how envious you were and how much you hoped you'd find a way to get a starship command again. Well, sir, it looks like you found a way.

[a transporter accident has just occurred]::Transporter chief: Enterprise, what we got back didn't live long... fortunately.

Captain James T. Kirk: Well, for a man who swore he'd never return to the Starfleet...::Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: Just a moment, Captain, sir. I'll explain what happened. Your revered Admiral Nogura invoked a little-known, seldom-used "reserve activation clause." In simpler language, Captain, they DRAFTED me!::Captain James T. Kirk: [In mock horror] They didn't.::Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: This was your idea. This was your idea, wasn't it?::Captain James T. Kirk: Bones, there's a... thing... out there.::Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: Why is any object we don't understand always called "a thing"?

Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: Well Jim... I hear Chapel's an M.D. now. Well I'm gonna need a top nurse... not a doctor who'll argue every little diagnosis with me. And they probably redesigned the whole sickbay, too! I know engineers, they LOVE to change things.

Captain James T. Kirk: Well, Bones. Do the new medical facilities meet with your approval?::Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: They do not. It's like working in a damn computer center.

Lieutenant Commander Nyota Uhura: It could hold a crew of... tens of thousands.::Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: Or a crew of a thousand ten miles tall.

[after Spock comments that, mentally, V'ger is a child]::Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: Spock, this "child" is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth. Now, what do you suggest we do? Spank it?::Commander Spock: It knows only that it needs, Commander. But, like so many of us... it does not know what.

Gertrude Ross: You've GOT to get a haircut. And if you have to let the barber give you Novocaine, let 'em!

Quotes:

Melvin Jones: Why, I was fighting Gene Tierney once, and...::Al Crowthers: Wait a minute! Don't you mean Gene Tunney?::Melvin Jones: [shouts] You fight who you want, I'll fight who I want!

Naval Doctor: [Unable to find a heartbeat] Be a good boy now and tell the doctor where your heart is.::Melvin Jones: You'll find out. I'm no stool pigeon.

Melvin Jones: Excuse me, handsome.::CPO Lardoski: Where do you get that handsome stuff?::Melvin Jones: Didn't I hear that man call you a pretty officer?::CPO Lardoski: [Growling] He said, "Petty officer." [Melvin sticks his tongue out at him behind his back]

Hilda Jones: Everybody should donate to the blood bank. What type are you?::Melvin Jones: Oh, the quiet type. I go to bed at nine o'clock, see a movie now and then, read some books, play checkers...::Hilda Jones: No! I mean what kind of blood have you?::Melvin Jones: Red.

Melvin Jones: Why d'ya put the bandage on my hand before ya put the gloves on?::Al Crowthers: So when you hit'm, you won't break your knuckles.::Melvin Jones: Why don't you put some on my shoes so I won't wear them out from running away from him?

Al Crowthers: How many fights have ya had all together?::Melvin Jones: [Talking loudly in a punchy boxer's voice in order to frighten his opponent] Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah... [Al hits him'] When ya add 'em up together now, I had 101 fights.::Al Crowthers: Yup!::Melvin Jones: Oh, 101! I win 'em all but 100!

Melvin Jones: There's no basis for metabolism, certain unaware of the fact that there are other men concerned here, and you still can't feel that a physical being is abstract. You've got to base the full heart and soul on the ingredients that other people are aware of the fact that physical being is isn't even evolved. Isn't that right?

Okinawa (1952)

Actors: Jerome Thoms (editor), Richard Denning (actor), Cameron Mitchell (actor), Alvy Moore (actor), Pat O'Brien (actor), Rhys Williams (actor), Wallace MacDonald (producer), Leonard Stern (writer), Leigh Jason (director), Richard Benedict (actor), George A. Cooper (actor), James Dobson (actor), Jameson Brewer (writer), Alan Dexter (actor), Arthur A. Ross (writer),

Plot: Basically the story of the sea battle for Okinawa between the ships of the U.S. Navy and the Japanese suicide planes---the Kamaikazes---and, as such, is filled with stock footage from official U.S. war-department films and newsreels and from Japanese newsreels..and even a movie-within-a-movie where 1948's "Ladies of the Chorus" is shown to a crew of a ship in 1944. The factual story is interlaced with a fictional one dealing with the crew of an American destroyer which is assigned to an ocean picket line around Okinawa to protect the supply ships and the forces on the island. As such, it has the usual battle-weary skipper, the Latino wise-guy, the "Kid" and the "Old Veteran", and the brash, cigar-chewing "operator" on the ship who has cornered the entire supply of the ship's beer rations.

There he falls in love with Julia Ashton, who cares deeply for him but believes herself incapable of love following the death of her fiancé; some time before. Wister convinces her that he loves her enough to live without her romantic love and that she should marry him. She does so and returns to Dubik with him. There she meets his adjutant, Captain Denny Roark. Roark is a dashing young man who reminds Julia thoroughly of her lost love. Soon she finds she is indeed capable of love, but it is Roark with whom she falls in love, not her husband. As warfare with the local tribes heats up and as Wister gains awareness of the unconsummated romance growing between his wife and best friend, tragedy lurks.
