Fort Apache
Fonda: (Lt Colonel)
O'Rourke.
Ward Bond: (Sergeant Major)
Sir?
Fonda:
This Lt. O'Rourke. Are you by chance related?
Ward Bond:
Not by chance sir, by blood. He's my son.
Fonda:
I see.
How did he happen to get into West Point?
Ward Bond:
It happened by Presidential Appointment sir.
Fonda:
Are you a former officer, O'Rourke?
Ward Bond:
During the war I was a Major in the 69th NY Regiment, the Irish Brigade, sir.
Fonda:
Still, it's been my impression that Presidential appointments were restricted to sons of holder's of the Medal of Honor.
Ward Bond:
That is my impression too, sir.
Will that be all, sir?
Fonda:
Yes Sergeant, it will.
