Lt. Sam Lawson : After being told that he is being transferred to a frontline British unit - Now you might not remember this or you may not be aware of it but I volunteered for the service because as a language specialist I was going to get a bar on my shoulder and be able to sit by a radio and eavesdrop on those fiendish Orientals... Now if they're going to change those rules, I just might have to resign that commission.
Capt. John G. Nolan : That's your Privilege.
Lt. Sam Lawson : and if I do you'll have to send another officer, right?
Capt. John G. Nolan : The order specifies Japanese speaking personnel. If you'd like to resign your commission the Navy would be happy to accept it and send you out there as a seaman 2nd class. Would you like me to arrange that for you right now?
