David James Elliott: Young Lt. Ron Graham

Quotes 

• Young Lt. Ron Graham : I'm a mustang, you know. I was ten years enlisted 'fore my unit went to Guam. I was the last man standing so they made me an officer. I'm not used to having to write home to tell folks that I got their sons killed.

  Capt. Chesborough : You know, Lieutenant, I've always believed in the Hand of God as the controlling force in this world. Don't I feel like an ass to find out that it's a Marine?

• Young Lt. Ron Graham : You're a lot smarter than you let on, Seaman.

  Seaman Thomas : You're a rare one for noticing, sir.
