Ambassador Andrei Lysenko: There is another matter... one I'm reluctant to...
Dr. Jeffrey Pelt: Please.
Ambassador Andrei Lysenko: One of our submarines, an Alfa, was last reported in the area of the Grand Banks. We have not heard from her for some time.
Dr. Jeffrey Pelt: Andrei, you've lost another submarine?
One of my favorite movies.
I read that damned book 8 times and am past counting the times that I saw the movie...
When I was in the Navy I was at SUBBASE Pearl Harbor (I know, tough duty) and worked on the 688 LA class so I was completely enamoured of all things sub. This was early eighties so we had to have quarterly Soviet Readiness Training...most people grumbled...I loved it!
