There is a scene where a crew member has to swim underwater inside the sub past a point where he can return in order to free up the torpedo for firing. He knows he's going to die yet does it when ordered to do so. |

That movie was on again tonight, and I still get choked up at the end as he's launching himself to catch the missile. And Alan, this is another one that you daughter would like if she hasn't seen it already. |

I wouldn't say that at all. Maybe you were being sarcastic, but if you weren't, it's always good to have visual reminders (even if it is just a movie) of the good in people and the willingness to put others first. |
