Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
It's good to see you again, Doge. It's been about four years? Lt. Comd. Dodge:
Something like that, sir. Not since we were both at Kings Bay. Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
Well, you are about to join the elite of the submarine fleet. The very best the United States Navy has to offer. Lt. Comd. Dodge:
Damn good feeling, sir. Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
[Notices a ship]
As a matter of fact, there she is now. Your new boat. [Dodge excitedly turns and looks and his look changes to shock as he sees it's an old rusty sub] Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
U.S.S. Stingray, SS-161. Lt. Comd. Dodge:
That? This can't be my boat, sir. Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
Oh, it most certainly is. Balao-class, refitted 1961. Lt. Comd. Dodge:
Balao-class? But that's a diesel sub! This is a joke, right? The Navy doesn't even use diesels anymore! Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
They do now, she's been recommissioned. Lt. Comd. Dodge:
Well, no disrespect to the USS Rustoleum here, but I'd be better off in the Merrimack! I was trained to command a nuclear boat! Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
Are you refusing to take command? Lt. Comd. Dodge:
[pauses, then sighs]
No, sir. Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
Good. Meet your crew here tomorrow morning, 0700. Lt. Comd. Dodge:
Are they also left over from World War II, sir? Rear Admiral Yancy Graham:
No, Captain. They've been handpicked... by me
