That truck convoy was comin’ back, from the island of Tinian to Laytee, just delivered the bomb. Didn’t see the first shark for about a half an hour. Tiger. Thirteen footer. Y’know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men! I don’t know how many sharks, maybe a thousand! I don’t know how many men, they averaged six an hour. So, eleven hundred men went in the water, three hundred and sixteen men come out, the sharks took the rest. Anyway, we delivered the bomb.
Quint was one hell of a character
I can just hear him say bomb in that od way and take wail of coffee
