Gavin: [contemplating the mothballed submarines] How many of 'em you got here?
Lt. Cmdr. Ken White: 64.
Gavin: At 6 million bucks apiece that's close to 400 million dollars. Why don't you junk 'em, instead of just letting 'em sit there. That way the tax-payers would get something back for their money.
Lt. Cmdr. Ken White: What if we should need 'em again?
Gavin: Aw - it's my guess the next war'll be fought with push-buttons
