Well, ..., I reckon this is it.
要宣布一件躲不过的大事时用，带认命的口气；正式场合别这么随便。

Well, boys, I reckon this is it. Nuclear combat toe-to-toe with the ruskies. Now, look, boys, I ain't much of a hand at makin' speeches. But I got a fair idea that something doggone important... Is goin' on back there. I got a fair idea of the kind of personal emotions that... Some of you fellows may be thinkin'. Heck, I reckon you wouldn't be human beings... If you didn't have pretty strong personal feelin's about nuclear combat. But I want you to remember one thing. The folks back home is countin' on ya. By golly, we ain't about to let 'em down. Tell ya somethin' else. If this thing turns out to be half as important as I figure it might be, I'd say you're all in line for some important promotions... And personal citations when this thing's over. That goes for every last one of ya, Regardless of your race, color or your creed. Now let's get this thing on the hump. We got some flyin' to do.
好了，弟兄们，我看就是这一回了。 跟俄国佬面对面打一场核战争。 听我说，弟兄们，我可不怎么擅长讲话。 但我估摸着，后方有件天大的要紧事…… 正在发生。 你们心里那种个人的情绪，我大概也猜得到…… 你们有些人也许正在琢磨。 哎，我寻思，你们也算不上什么人了…… 要是对打核战没有相当强烈的个人感受的话。 不过我想让你们记住一点。 后方的乡亲们可都指望你们呢。 老天作证，咱们可不能让他们失望。 再跟你们说件事。 这事要是有我估摸的一半那么要紧， 我说你们个个都等着升官呢…… 等这事完了，还有个人嘉奖。 你们每一个人都算数，不管什么种族、肤色、信仰。 好了，咱们这就动手吧，还有一摊子飞行任务要干呢。

下一章 · 02what's cooking有什么动静这场戏：秘书替将军挡电话字面是「脚趾对脚趾」，像拳击手贴脸对打，意思是正面硬碰硬、互不相让。戏里说要跟俄国佬 nuclear combat toe-to-toe，就是跟对方硬碰硬打一场核战。
地道说法是 not much of a hand at，比如 I ain't much of a hand at makin' speeches，就是「我这人不怎么会讲话」。用来自谦、暖场都很自然。
意思是让某人失望、辜负某人的期望。戏里说 ain't about to let 'em down，就是「咱们绝不会让他们失望」，战前动员里常用来表决心。
意思是依靠、指望某人，后面直接接人，如 count on me（包在我身上）。戏里说 the folks back home is countin' on ya，就是「后方乡亲都指望你们」。
这是美国口语里温和的骂法，相当于「他娘的、该死的」，比 damn 轻得多，用来加重语气又不失体面，戏里形容事情 doggone important。
