Lt. William Arnold, MD : Oh, you can't go a mile? Half a mile?
Cmdr. David Forest : No, Sir.
Lt. William Arnold, MD : 100 yards?
Lt. William Arnold, MD : [Forest shakes his head] Lieutenant, how far can you swim?
Cmdr. David Forest : I can't, Sir.
Lt. William Arnold, MD : Lieutenant, a basic requirement of this school is that a man be a good swimmer.
Cmdr. David Forest : I will be. I still have 30 days leave coming before I have to report in.
Lt. William Arnold, MD : You expect to learn to swim like an expert in those 30 days? I doubt if you'll make it. But if you do, we'll have a man who knew underwater demolition and the Navy. Most of the officers who report here are as green as grass. Alright, I'll pace you - if you learn to swim in the next 30 days.
