"To:" "Chief of Naval Operations:" "I am departing the region of independent steaming." "All maneuvers and war games completed successfully." "No detection of surface, aerial or submarine contacts." "Distance from Admiral Chernov's squadron 1440 miles due north." "Per orders I will bypass the squadron and follow the red coastline." "703 actual, out." "INDEPENDENT STEAMING" "The term COVERT OPERATIONS means all manner of activities performed or sponsored by the U .S." "Government against hostile foreign organizations or governments." "These activities will be planned and implemented so that the U.S. Government is never identified as its source." "In the event of disclosure, the U.S. Government may fully deny responsibility." "Directive 10/2" "National Security Council, United States" "Hi, folks, today is Saturday and we are back on the air with the ACB Television News Service." "I'm David Holder, with cameraman Dustin Norman" "It's the second day of maneuvers in conjunction with our strategic allied forces." "Fully ready for combat are land-based ballistic missiles, ballistic missile nuclear submarines, and strategic bombers." "All units have now specific targets on the territory of the Soviet Union." "The exercises include North America, Canada all of Western Europe, the Indian Ocean, Australia and Oceania." "We are aboard the Nimitz in the western part of the Pacific Ocean" "With us is the commander of the fleet, Admiral Robinson," "Rear Admiral Haveli, closest aides." "Now do you see the other ships?" "The Russian ships!" "And that's only the vanguard of the Russian fleet." "We know it includes the aircraft carrier Novorossiysk, six missile frigates, five super-destroyers, four large landing craft, with their complements of Marines, two oilers and a hospital ship, Yenisey." "The commander of the Russian squadron is Vice Admiral Chernov." "The Russians are also staging maneuvers in this part of the Pacific Ocean." "Our ships and the Russians' are sailing south." "where the maneuvers will be completed soon." "The fleets are monitoring each other constantly." "They're always on alert since the war games could turn into a confrontation and the beginning of a war, but then..." "Someday we may be able to sit down at the negotiating table" "But for now, our boys in the Pentagon only think of one thing:" "open missile silos, fingers on the launch buttons." "What can you do?" "We live in a nuclear age" "But I, like you, trust that this time everything will be fine." "In Vietnam, the Hessalt Group carried out my personal assignments." " You know, if I were you, I'd think it over." " Maybe you're right." "He's a little older since then, but I think he can handle it." "Glad to see you looking so young, Hessalt!" "You're looking swell." "How's the shoulder?" " Sometimes it gives me problems." " Oh, yeah, I remember, napalm, the Mekong delta, Saigon." "How long since you've been in the States?" "15 years, sir." "You requested to be rotated?" "For six years in a row." "Yes, that business with the Vietnamese village that your boys burned down, it raised a lot of noise in the States." "A lot of people wanted to see you in the electric chair." "and apparently, I was right to hide you out of sight." "That village, those were your orders sir." "Public opinion is only interested in the killer." "But never mind." "We need to help each other." "I'm taking you into Central, Major." "Captain, sir." " Major." "Have a seat." " Thank you" "You'll advance rapidly now." "You'll make colonel out of turn." "You'll go back to the States with Griffith." "But, all that only after you carry out a mission." "What happened?" "Shit." " Sit down, Frank." "What's the matter with his arm?" " Napalm." "Got caught in our own raid." "That's not what I'm interested in." "What will happen to him later?" "Don't feel sorry for him, Michael." "He's a sadist." "He burned down a village near Saigon, with all the yellow bellies in it." "And why did you yank him out of that shit?" "Not only him, Michael, not only him." "If there is a thaw in our relations with the Russians," "We will have to cut back production of the most important strategic defense systems." "Space, land, and sea weapons." "The most powerful corporations in the country will hang in the balance." "With losses in the hundreds of billions of dollars." "And these are our losses." "Our business." "Could you be more specific?" "Certainly." "These are the basic programs I'll have to curtail." "if the President comes to terms with the Russians in the next meetings." "First, all researchers of missile defense space systems." "Second, a freeze will be imposed on the assembly of the new B-1 strategic bomber, and the stealth aircraft." "And finally, we will stop building Ohio-class nuclear submarines." "You know the result of all that?" "In principle the closure of 130 leading companies." "The losses from closing down these programs will be 460 billion dollars." "That's the price of detente." "I'll tell you one thing, you guys." "If we do this, we'll go bankrupt." "Will the Senate see it?" "They'll grab 1/5 of the American workforce by the throat." "They've gone nuts!" "It seems that we have finally someone who understands the Soviet proposals." "What does the CIA say?" "The situation is pretty serious." "It is vital for us not to allow our administration any contact with the Soviets." "In short, we need an act that will turn public opinion against the Russians for a long time." "This act is ready and reliable people are awaiting my orders." "Today I want to receive your permission." "And what is this act?" "One of the CIA secret bases is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean." "It is located on an uninhabited island, a No Man's Land." "It's defended by two missile cutters and a submarine." "This submarine is the main control center with a launch control for guiding a missile launched from the base." "The target?" " A passenger liner." "Whose?" "Its home port is Singapore." "Here's our press release." "According to reliable sources a long-range conventional Soviet cruise missile destroyed a passenger ship en route from San Diego to Singapore." "The few survivors report that just before impact they saw the periscope of a submarine." "The Department of Defense reports that this submarine most likely is part of the Russian squadron now maneuvering in the southern part of the Pacific Ocean" "Experts believe that Russia has a base in those waters with nuclear submarines armed with long-range cruise missiles." "The experts also believe the Russian missiles face no obstacles in striking the largest Pacific seaports in America and Japan." " We need to think, to weigh this." "Gentlemen, democracy is not only the right to vote for or against," "But also to abstain." "Attention, Mr. Crowder." "The passenger liner Vien is leaving port." "Displacement 12,000 tons." "Speed 18 knots." "1500 passengers aboard." "It should be in our quadrant in 72 hours." "The ship will be in the zone of operations in 72 hours." "I should leave immediately." "No hurry, Jack, relax and leave tomorrow." "Listen, Jack," "The best thing for your arm is a good massage." "I have a great gift for you, Jack, with all my heart." "Translate to Dang that he will go with this gentleman." "I picked him up in Singapore." "He doesn't speak a word of English, but he knows the secrets of Tibetan ointments and massage." "But remember." "Everything is in your hands." "I know, sir." "Look what those babes are doing up there!" "And remember, Hessalt, this is your last mission." "Everything is in your hands." " Cigarette?" " No thanks." "And we'll take a glass with us, babe, and a bottle to the room." "Hey, boy, we're going to have fun in the room together." "Don't drink too much, Eddie, or nothing will work." "I can't believe it." "In the States!" "Just like a fairy tale." "I stopped believing fairy tales a long time ago." "But we're here, you're a major, and I'm a staff sergeant." "We have a pile of money." "Better think how to stay alive, Eddie." "Crowder never does anything for nothing." "These missions are assigned to dead men." "You're just tired, sir." "Look at how that chocolate girl is watching you." "Sorry, but somebody is waiting for me." "Relax a little, sir." "And remember Hessalt, this is your last mission and everything is in your hands." "Shit, they're not going to f*** with me!" "Bearing?" " Bearing 330" "Begin maneuvers." "Well, where have we sailed to, Commander?" "The fish aren't biting here." " Just so." "But on the Oka, last vacation," "I caught a big one." "For four hours we fought with this rod." "Come on, tell the truth." "No, it's true." "We had to use an axe on it." "And at home it's springtime now, nightingales are singing." "It'd be nice to hear them." "Do you know that in America there are no nightingales?" " Seriously." " Honest." "It's a historical fact." "Couldn't settle in there." "They didn't like it there." "Oh, I want to get home." "Six years in a row I cannot break free." "No time." "Where is home?" "Near Vladimir." "We're neighbors." "We manage, but there's nobody to help them." "It's not good." "As soon as we're back, I will go to my father." "Even if it's only for a week." "Will you take me with you?" "As a helper." "Of course, gladly, thank you!" "Whose boat was it, Jack?" "An American." "It was a little bigger than our yacht." "A Japanese jet fighter forced her right onto the reef." "The whole crew was lost." "But the safes were left in the captain's cabin." "Where did you learn that from?" "From a Japanese, just by chance." "Will he want his share?" "Sorry!" "T minus 80" "T minus 75" "T minus 70" "T minus 65" "T minus 60" "T minus 55" "T minus 50" "T minus 45" "T minus 40" "T minus 35" "T minus 30" "Now the target is 500 miles away." "Right." "The target is within firing range." "T minus 15" "T minus 10, 9, 8, 7 6, 5, 4, 3" "2, 1, 0" "500 miles to target." "Altitude and speed as calculated." "Some trouble with the self-targeting system," "there's an extra target." "Radar reading is 258." "Small size, low speed." "It's very near the base." "It's come out of the western group of islands." "The missile changed its course." "You know what depth it's at?" "It's about 50 or so meters." "For me it's nothing." "I'm confident we'll find the ship." "And everything will be ours?" "Every penny." "The missile is returning" "The missile warhead is aimed at target number 2." "Course correction, losing altitude, steady on target number 2," "The target is in the hit zone." "Self destruct!" "I'm coming!" "Hold on, I'm coming!" " Jack, Jack!" " Help me get the survival kit in the boat." " What?" " Everything, radio, flares, rifle, hurry!" "God, what's going to happen to us." "Turn on the radio, send a distress signal." "Someone will hear us." "The island is not far." "We will try to get to it." " Bridge, Radio." " Go ahead, Radio." " Received SOS." "Longitude 33 degrees 40', Latitude 132 degrees 18'." "Acknowledged." "Navigation, give me bearing and range." "Aye." "Bearing 45, range 160 milles." "Island group quadrant 10-42." "Eight hours steaming." "Chief of Naval Staff." "Any word on the class of vessel sending the SOS?" "The signal is very weak." "Probably a small transmitter, a schooner, Comrade Commander." "1500 miles from Admiral Chernov's squadron." "Have the Americans reacted to the signal?" "All of Admiral Robinson's ships are in their places." "They do not want to upset the equilibrium." "Or they did not hear it." "Entirely possible." "Ten minutes earlier their observation plane left the zone of operations." "The next plane will be there in 7 minutes." "Maybe then they'll hear it." "In any case, have Chernov send one of his fastest ships to the ship in distress." "Maybe it would be better to send 703." "703 is coming home." "She has been on independent steaming for several months." "For any of Admiral Chernov's ships to reach these islands will take no less than 72 hours, Comrade Fleet Admiral." "For 703 it's a maximum of 8 hours." "Very well." "What else?" "Comrade Fleet Admiral," "A Navy plane on patrol in this part of the Pacific Ocean determined the subsurface point of missile launch." " Where?" " The same place the SOS is coming from." "This is no man's land." "An excellent place for launching long-range cruise missiles." "From these islands missiles could cover all the sealanes in the Pacific and Indian Oceans." "Even our eastern seaboard is not a long flight." "I propose to investigate this region immediately, Comrade Fleet Admiral." "It seems to us the SOS and missile launch are connected." "No objection." "Who will do this?" "703." "The ship 's crew is trained and includes a Marine detachment." "Very well, prepare a radiogram to 703." "To:" "Commander, 703." "Assist unknown vessel" "Proceed to island group in quadrant 10-42." "Mission: to locate the underground missile launch site." "Assign to Major Shatokhin's detachment." "We regret postponement of return to home base after extended independent steaming." "Chief of Naval Staff." " Do you have to do that?" " More than once." "Harder, Danilov, harder!" "Move, move!" "No, not that way!" "It's not a dance, Danilov." "Watch this." "Oh, crap!" "Looks like it's not my profession." "And what do you mean?" "Planes, ships, tanks," "You sit and push buttons and it's a quick profession." "You want to go back to bows and arrows?" "If it were up to me we would go back." "So, Brother, and as a philosopher you ended up with us." "I volunteered." "Sure, volunteered." "Don't believe him, Comrade Major." "When he was in civvies he got beaten up, the scars are still on his face." "So, you wanted to learn how to fight the right way?" "My genes drove me to it, Comrade Major." "Interesting, what sort of genes?" "The Danilovs have fought their whole lives." "Starting with Napoleon." "We received all Russian medals." "My grandfather told me." " A warrior?" "He served for the whole war." "From Brest to Berlin." "He has three Orders of Glory." "You have such good genes," "So don't fool around, that uniform suits you!" " Our uniform suits everyone, Comrade Major." " True." "Well, get up!" "Major Shatokhin, report to the CO." "On my way." "Fellows, carry on without me." "You and Kruglov, I'll be right back." "The guidance systems of the missile malfunctioned, sir, we had to destroy it." "To prepare the next missile we need a day." "Prepare the second one immediately." "We received an SOS from near the base, obviously that boat was hit by our missile." "What should we do?" "The Russians or Admiral Robinson could have heard the signal." "You take care of the Russians." "Robinson is my business." "Understand?" "You make another mistake like that, Hessalt, and I wouldn't give a penny for your head." "And remember, Hessalt, your life depends on the precise execution of this operation, okay?" "Furthermore, ours and the Russians' squadrons are maneuvering" "1800 miles north, quadrant PQ-10." "These ships are heading south towards you." "Carefully check the guidance system of the second missile" "And God help you, Hessalt, if you make another mistake." "Understand?" "That's all." "We could get that rocket ready in hours, don't you think so?" "We'll do it in half the time, Griffith." "And it will help us finally get out of this place." "Otherwise, we're dead men, Eddie!" "But Crowder promised..." "He's a son of a bitch, Crowder!" "You remember what he did to your wife, Paula, back in Saigon?" "Shut up!" "I'm sorry, Eddie." "Crowder has kept us for 15 years like rats in a hole." "He doesn't want us back in the States." "Cause if one of us talks about what he did in Vietnam, he'd really lose his post." "He'll crush us, Jackie." "No, he won't." "If my idea pans out, and I have all the aces," "What do you mean?" "And who's paying you?" "Don't understand me." "Well, come on, dear monkey, come on." "Do your stuff." "Monsoon, Monsoon, I'm Gloria 400." "calling Pago Pago Coast Guard, over." "Do you read me?" "Over." " What do you hear?" " Damn, not a sound." "Have no fear, dear." "It's OK, we'll make it out of here." "It's OK, don't worry." " Caroline!" " What's the matter?" "Get the rocket pistol!" "Quick, quick!" " What happened?" " Look out there!" " Where?" "Here!" "Here!" "We're here!" "We're here!" "Scat, I am Drake." "I see people." "Where?" "Southwestern island, sir." "A small tent." "Rubber boat, radio is receiving an SOS." "What else do you see, Drake?" "A man and a woman." "Appear to be Americans." "It seems our missile hit their boat." "Can you see anything on the surface?" "I can't see anything." "Keep watching them." "All right, monkey!" "Who sent you?" "Crowder?" "I'll kill you." "Ah, right, couldn't speak a word of English." "That's it, Eddie, he was Crowder's man." "Now we'll do as we planned." "Our people are on the base, in the submarine and the vessels." "We need a nuclear warhead from the arsenal, but be careful." "Crowder's people are guarding the nuclear arsenal," "Griffith, act fast." "Puma calling Skate, Puma calling Skate," "Emergency, they are attacking the nuclear arsenal, emergency, emergency" "OK, Langer, what happened?" "It's Puma, sir." "They broke into the nuclear arsenal bunker." "Each warhead has an alarm." "Only we can hear the signal." "We have determined the warhead's location." "Tell me, dammit!" "It's mounted on the missile sir." "Listen, Hessalt, I know you can hear me." "Don't go acting crazy, Jackie!" "What the hell do you want?" "What do you need a warhead for?" "Answer me!" "Do this and you're all dead, answer me, Hessalt!" "I'm warning you!" "Do you understand?" "Answer me!" "Hessalt!" "Keep trying to raise him." "This is General Duke." " Listen, General, we need to meet, now!" "Are you receiving, over?" "I am Scat calling Puma, do you read me?" "The range of the missiles is such that we can hit either San Diego or Vladivostok." "Wait a minute, what's San Diego got to do with it?" "Your Hessalt wouldn't be crazy enough to try to hit the U.S.!" "What if he only hits the Russian ships?" "They would attack our ships." "The Russians won't suspect that the missiles came from a third point." "A single nuclear warhead is an offensive act, but it is not war." "The conflict wouldn't go beyond the boundaries of the Pacific Ocean." "A limited war?" "In the last two years NATO held 5 maneuvers based on a nuclear war in Europe." "Five times we defended Europe and 5 times war was carried over to U.S. territory." "We are looking at a real situation, not a hypothesis." "What do you propose?" "Before the first rocket is launched from the base, with all our force prepare for war, and at the first sign of danger from the Russians hit them with everything we've got in a pre-emptive strike." "We favor a decisive and preventive strike." "The army prefers to be aggressive." "But if I'm ordered not to take that step, I want to tell you" "This will be the blackest day for the U.S. armed forces." "Any order to retreat is bad for morale." "Remember that!" "All your talk is senseless now, Duke." "The action has already been taken, that's the main thing." "We have to save the situation." "I never told you before, but I was afraid Hessalt wouldn't hold up." "Hessalt's gone crazy, he intends to launch the missile at one of the fleets." "We have to destroy him, or it's war." "And in order to survive, I need a strategic bomber to destroy that island and wipe it from the face of the earth or" "Hessalt and his band of thugs will launch it." " The Russian frigate is standing 15 miles NNW of the base." " Hand it over to the bosun" "I'm flying to the target, quadrant PQ 10." "I'll be in position in 3 hours and 20 minutes." "All right, keep me informed." "So, Major, are you ready?" "We are always ready." " Issue weapons and advance!" " Be careful out there." "Well, I don't think there's anything serious there." "Our profession isn't risk-free." " You're not going for no reason." "I'll monitor comms." " Very well." " Forward!" "Arsenal, Arsenal, Pagod." "I am in quadrant 10-41." "Receiving SOS loud and clear." "Beginning descent, over and out." " I found them." " There they are." "Look lively, look lively!" "Keep up!" "Chopper." "Russians going to the tent." "They are all armed." "Hello, I am Major Shatokhin, Soviet Union." "You come to our ship, please." "Pleased to meet you, Major, Jack Harrison, United States." "My wife, Carol." "Hello, very pleased to meet you, please come." "Five Marines, four grunts and an officer, going into the tent." "All our units ready to launch." "Right." "Everything is ready, sir." "What's this?" "As you requested, sir, the movements of our fleet and the Russians in quadrant PQ-10." "Next to enter will be the passenger liner." "Within 3 hours it will be out of range." "To hell with that liner." "I need to attack the Russian fleet." "Their destroyer is just southwest of the atoll." "Russian Marines have landed on the island." "We don't know what's gonna happen now." "I've been ordered to aim the missiles at the Russian squadron in quadrant PQ-10." "You haven't made any mistakes, I hope!" "Everything is in order, sir, I've checked everything twice." "Program the warhead immediately." "The target is the Russian fleet." "Yes, sir." "What is it?" "These islands don't belong to anyone, as far as I know." "But it's really people-less spots." "I'm a pilot with Islands Airline." "I've claimed one of the islands." "One of them keep to myself." " The climate here is marvelous." " I also like it here, but very hot." "Major, was that a Russian submarine?" "No, submarine not ours." "Will you help us to get back?" " Yeah, we will contact you with Admiral Robinson." " Thanks." "Why do you need island and where you saw submarine?" "A little to the left of that point." "What's he babbling?" "Says these are no man's islands." "So far as he knows, uninhabited." "He is an island airline pilot." "He claimed one of these islands for himself." " Capitalist?" " Yes, I am a capitalist." "Well, so, welcome to our ship." "No, we'll spend the night here." "A woman on board is bad luck, they say!" " Huh?" " He says a woman on board is bad luck." "True." "Well, I'll leave our doctor." "Don't need to do that, it's only a scratch." " At least he will keep you company, OK?" " OK." "Mama told me, "Study English, Son!"" "Yes?" "The Russian helicopter has left." "The Americans and a Russian officer are still near the tent." "The Americans believe they saw a submarine between the islands, right here." "And whose is that submarine?" "American, French?" "Maybe English?" "Do you think it launched the missile?" "Who the devil knows?" "In any case, the missile hit the yacht, sank it, the submarine saw it and submerged." "What if there wasn't any submarine?" "What, the Americans made it up?" "Anything's possible." "And why didn't they want to come to the ship?" "His wife didn't want to." "Maybe she stayed back to warn somebody." "That is also possible." "Chief of Naval Staff's cryptogram was clear." "The missile came from below ground." "The launch point must be on one of these islands." "So if the Chief is not wrong there really is a missile launching pad here." "and a very convenient one, by the way." "Here, look." "All sealanes to the Indian Ocean from the Pacific and back are in range, just press the button." "Usually these types of bases are well camouflaged and are guarded even better." "In fact, that submarine could be part of the base defenses." "I'll signal the Chief of Naval Staff." "Signal him." "I'll get the detachment ready." "Maybe we're making a mountain out of a molehill." "May God grant that." "So here's what we do." "Tomorrow I dispatch you, weigh anchor, enter the waters of these islands and await your report." "Maybe some sailors could help you?" "No, not necessary." "I'll just take some of my own men." "You know, rookies, I don't want to run the risk." "There's something fishy here." "In short, if something happens, you'll know, right?" "Agreed?" "And for now, Commander, you may sleep in peace." "I'll keep an eye on things." "I'll check on the sailors, they're tired." "So many months on independent steaming." "I'll see to mine." "Good night." "Kill everyone in the tent silently." "Leave no traces." "Why didn't we leave with the Russians, Jack?" "I don't believe them." "But, why?" "How is it they got here before ours did?" "And why are they so interested in the other island?" "And why did that submarine submerge as soon as it saw us?" "That's a question." "We sent an SOS." "That's a Russian sub." "And the rocket was launched from it." "Don't worry, Honey." "Sleep!" "Carol?" "Carol!" "Write the hull number of this ship." "And you, do you have someone?" "Single and without commitment." "Any neighbors?" "The nearest village is 36 km away by river." "18 on foot." "There all the fiancees are spoken for." "Well, here we have a lone wolf, Dersu Uzala." "Did you hunt squirrels?" "Didn't hunt them, Comrade Warrant Officer." "Have to protect them, since there are so few squirrels." "We have to preserve our taiga." "In other words, you don't hunt any more." "Won't hunt." "I'll go with the pioneers on a bulldozer, prospecting for gold." "Gold is good." "A landing ship." "May I ask a question, Comrade Warrant Officer?" "Take your chances!" "Is it true that our commander had you thrown in the pokey?" "There was an issue." "So, what did you get sent up for?" "He went to a cafe to drink some mineral water." "A fight broke out." "Four against two." "Comrade Warrant Officer told them, "Break!"" "All six of them turned on him." "Turned out they were friends." "We had to help out." "Two had multiple fractures." "Yeah, that was after the others ran away." "What happened then?" "Well, militia, then the Commandant, and then our major came, who with purity of heart gave me three days in the brig." " Why?" " Because the militia caught us." "Okay, it was the right thing to do." "What kind of Marine lets the cops catch him?" "In our line of work what's most important?" "A quick getaway!" "It's right?" "That was a good deed." "What do you mean?" "Our major." "He punished you, he forgave you." "He can't manage without me." "You don't find men like me just lying around." " Isn't that right, Comrade Sergeant?" " Just so, Comrade Guards Warrant Officer." "Guardsman, I authorize you to enroll in courses to become a warrant officer of good deeds." "More important, I'll go home to visit my mother, and younger brother, need to look in on them." "And your father?" "My father drowned in the river." "Long ago, during a thaw." "Why aren't we asleep?" "Soulful conversation, Commander." "Understood." "Danilov, Parshin, quickly:" "Signs of camouflaged enemy missile launching points?" " Camouflaged objectives modify the local topography, have ventilation shafts, manholes, wells..." "Stop!" "Danilov?" "Mobile radio antennae, abnormal radioactivity, exhaust gases." "Right." "Tomorrow you'll see that." "Very well." "Tomorrow after reveille the armory will issue two ammo allowances." "Or even three." " Aye aye." "Grenades, cartridges, and knives are mandatory." "I mean a full loadout." " Danilov, how's the radio?" " In order, Comrade Major." "Listen up." "This means liftoff tomorrow, er, today already, at 0500." "Now get to sleep, lights out!" "The distress signal was sent by the U.S. yacht "Saturno"." "While assisting its crew, Captain Filatov was killed along with the owner's wife," "Caroline Harrison." "Major Shatokhin's detachment is searching for the cruise missile launching site." "703 actual." "Comrade Major, Lieutenant Commander Burlakov, reporting for duty." "Listen, Commander, search every inch of this island top to bottom." "We will go search the other island." " Just so!" " Execute!" " Aye!" "Right face, forward march..." "Guardsmen, follow me!" "600 miles to target." "The on-board systems have received the data for bombardment in quadrant PQ-10." "Everyone in the helicopter, on the double!" "Major, who did it?" "I don't know, Harrison, I don't know." " I'll go with you." " That's impossible." "They killed my wife!" " Well, what do we do with him?" " What does he want?" "He wants to come with us." "That's understandable." "You have to feel sorry for him, Commander!" "I want revenge!" "You can go, let's go!" "Arsenal, Arsenal, Pagoda." "Do you copy, over?" "You keep an eye out for him!" "Take this." "The USSR Ministry of Foreign Affairs has informed the American side about events you reported to the Chief of Naval Staff." "The answer will be forthcoming in a timely manner." "Regardless of that, ship and Major Shatokhin's detachment are to carry on based on local conditions, decisively and quickly." "Chief of Naval Staff." "Get ready." "Scat, here is Spy." "I see the chopper." "She's approaching the base." "Arsenal, Arsenal, Pagod." "I am in quadrant 10-41." "Going to work." "Listen for me every half hour." "Force, I need them alive, I want hostages." "Hold it!" "Drop your gun!" "Shit!" "Hey, Russians, drop your guns!" "Hands up!" "Come this way one by one!" "Bloody bastards" "Serioga..." "Quick, quick!" "That one's still holding." "Release it!" "Drop it, Parshin." " Comrade Major!" "" " Drop it, I said!" "Drop it! Sanya, we're alive, take the hairy one!" " You alive?" " Hell, yes." "Forward!" "Hessalt, the Russians are after me!" "They are right here, on the base!" "Get up!" "We're changing positions, moving to the cutters and the sub." "Ford's group will stay behind." "Not a single ship, boat, or person should approach the base." "Yes, sir." "Sink everything!" "We'll hit the Russians." "In response they'll hit Robinson's fleet." "In the chaos, we'll escape."
