...jobs to have time for much complaining. "Nobody goes around here wondering what he is doing and why," notes Master Sergeant Eugene Bostock, a member of the 941st Air Force Reserve Group at McChord Air Force Base south of Tacoma, Wash. "It's a good group," says Bostock, a grey-haired veteran of World War II and Korea. "But I'm not naive enough to believe that McChord would fall apart if we weren't here...
...aware perhaps that this was a matter beyond his competence, he concurred with the clerk's opinion.

These minor lapses, though, do not seriously affect the bewitching qualities of the film-which, in addition to being superb suspense, is a wicked argument against planned parenthood...
