Quotes from

[last lines]
Linda Merritt: I wish you didn't have to go, Dave.
Sergeant Dave King: Orders are orders. Tom obeyed his - that's why the King presented him with the Victoria Cross. You must be awfully proud of him.
Linda Merritt: I am. I don't even think of him as dead. I'll always see him as he used to ride - happy, free, proud of the uniform he wore - proud to serve Canada. I'll ses him riding like that as long as I live.


Doctor [Ch. 1]: I have here a model of our marine mine. This mine has been treated with a pitchblend concentrate known as "Compound X." To this Compound X I have added one milligram of copper sulphate. You will observe the effect.
[the mine is attracted to the model of a ship and blows it up on contact]
His Excellency [Ch. 1]: A magnetic mine! Gentlemen, this weapon is greater than the submarine itself. Explain, Doctor.
Doctor [Ch. 1]: Gladly. Your Excellency, this is a discovery of a Canadian scientist named Merritt. It's extremely valuable as a cure for infantile paralysis. By adding copper sulphate, the compound becomes highly magnetic as you have seen.
Admiral [Ch. 1]: Then a mine or torpedo containing the compound aims itself at any steel hulled vessel in that area.


Sergeant Dave King: Vinegar Smith! You haven't grown a day older!
Vinegar Smith: I haven't grown a day older in thirty years and I ain't gonna grow older, either.
