[Nimitz has received the first reports on the Battle at Midway] Admiral Nimitz:
Did you Confirm it? Lt. Jack Reid:
Yes, sir. Admiral Fletcher's reply just came in. "Fletcher to Nimitz. Confirm previous report. Three enemy carriers afire". Admiral Nimitz:
Hallelujah. Lt. Comm. Rochefort:
Three of their first-line carriers, Admiral. Isn't that worth at least a "hot diggity damn"? Admiral Nimitz:
I'll take it under advisement, Joe, but there's still that fourth enemy carrier to deal with. Lt. Jack Reid:
There's also a message fron Captain Buckmaster, sir. The Yorktown's been hit. Admiral Nimitz:
Badly? Lt. Jack Reid:
Yes, sir, but she is underway again... operational. Lt. Comm. Rochefort:
My gosh, our whole force may be in jeopardy if the Japanese located the Yorktown. They still got a tremendous fleet out there, Admiral. Admiral Nimitz:
But that fourth carrier can't be far off. Lt. Comm. Rochefort:
We've already won a great victory, Admiral. Maybe we oughta get our people out of there. Admiral Nimitz:
You mean... break off, run for home? Lt. Comm. Rochefort:
Before they can hurt us again. Yes, sir. Admiral Nimitz:
Well, that might be the smart play, Commander. Trouble is, I *want* that fourth carrier
