Dive Bomber (1941)

Craig Stevens: John Thomas Anthony

Quotes 

• John Thomas Anthony : Commander Blake... Sir, I just wanted to thank you for giving me another chance.

  Lieutenant Commander Joe Blake : Don't mention it.

  John Thomas Anthony : It's meant a lot to us to train under a pilot like you, sir.

  John Thomas Anthony : Thanks. Just remember one rule, Anthony. As a pilot, always fight to be on top, and stay there. You can't lick 'em from below.

  John Thomas Anthony : I won't forget *that*, sir.

• [last lines] 

  John Thomas Anthony : Lieutenant. Sir, I've been ordered to stay on duty here as an instructor. Anytime you need a guinea pig for future research, I'd like to carry on Commander Blake's work.

  Lieutenant Doug Lee : That'll be fine, Anthony. We'll let you know...

  John Thomas Anthony : [interrupting]  And Sir, the pilots would like you to make this hop with us... if you wish.

  Lieutenant Doug Lee : Thanks... thanks. I would like to.

  [Lee and the squadron get suited for the flight wearing the newly developed pressure suits, with Lee placing in his pocket Blake's recognizable cigarette case, which he, opening his cockpit window during flight, ultimately throws out of the plane into the ocean below in Blake's memory]
