Das Boot Quote

[ Werner takes pictures of the watch officers on the conning tower ]
Captain : Take pictures of the crew returning, not putting out to sea.
Lt. Werner : Why?
Captain : They'll have grown beards by then. It would shame the Tommies to see mere boys give them Hell. Baby faces. Ones that should still suck mama's breast. [ pause ]
Captain : I feel ancient around these kids, like I'm on some Children's Crusade.
