Game: Guess the war movie quote

[waldorf]

I think the quote is from Run Silent Run Deep.

I think the quote is from Run Silent Run Deep.

Hey! Finally! You are correct!

The phrase is heard multiple times during the movie in both the nightmare dream the unconscious Captain (Clark Gable) has and during the battle sequence later in the movie. It refers to a mysterious Morse code signal overheard by the Americans during attacks on Japanese convoys.

Thank you!

Sgt.: Wasn't there a comment by your General Sherman about war?

Lt.: Yeah, he said, "War is Hell." What did he know, that eight-ball never left the States.

"Halls of Montezuma", 1950, starring Richard Widmark

[waldorf]

You are correct - over to you!

[KHeitmann]

Thanks. With the anniversary of June 6 a couple weeks ago, one of the local stations that runs nothing but movies ran "Halls of Montezuma" along with a bunch of other war movies all day long, so it was kind of fresh in my mind.

And now.....

"How many ships are answering the emergency sortie signal?"

[waldorf]

I thought that would have taken a little longer to solve.

I think the answer to your question is Tora! Tora! Tora!

So sorry. No! But the right ocean.

Midway.

[KHeitmann]

Nope! Try again!

[waldorf]

How about They were Expendable?

[KHeitmann]

No, sorry. Try again.

[waldorf]

How about In Harm's Way?

[KHeitmann]

How about In Harm's Way?

Yes! You got it. Your turn.

[waldorf]

Thank you.

Listen to me, (name has been removed)! If you put me and my men in a wringer - -if you send us out there and let us hang - -I swear, I swear by all that's holy, I'll come back. I'll come back and take this grenade and shove it down your throat and pull the pin!
