Cmdr. Carl Jessop:
"Wait and see." 1919, the Marines were practicing dive-bombing off of Hati, right? "Well, premature, better wait and see." Well, we waited and the Germans showed us in '37 in Madrid.
Navy Pilot:
You mean like at Pearl Harbor, Commander?
Cmdr. Carl Jessop:
Pearl Harbor? Shit, in '32 and '33, Jack O'Clark's squadrons proved that Pearl Harbor could be attacked successfully from the air, and Admiral Logan Ramsey said, predicted, it would happen, in detail.
Navy Pilot:
And when was that?
Cmdr. Carl Jessop:
1937, pal. "Wait and see." We waited. December 7, we saw.
