A Taste of Armageddon [ Star Trek: The Original Series television episode ]
Stardate: 3192.1
Original Airdate: 23 Feb, 1967
ANAN: What do you want, Captain?
Captain KIRK: I want to contact my ship. Where are my communicators?
ANAN: In a safe place.
KIRK: You take a lot of chances, Councilman.
ANAN: You're worried about your ship, Captain. I'm trying to save a world.
KIRK: If I were you, I'd think about saving my life.
ANAN: Won't you have a drink, Captain?
(Kirk pours himself a slug of trova, and as he turns his back, Anan presses concealed buttons.)
ANAN: And then we can discuss our differences.
KIRK: I'm not interested in discussing our differences. You don't seem to realise the risk you're taking. We don't make war with computers and herd the casualties into suicide stations. We make the real thing

Stargate SG-1 - Cold Lazarus - season 1 episode 7 - Friday 29 August 1997
HARRIMAN
(over the intercom)
Off world activation…this is not a drill! All units report to stations. This is not a drill!
[In the SGC corridors, troops respond. Gathering weapons, they arrive in the Gate Room and take up positions in front of the spinning Stargate.]
INT—CONTROL ROOM—DAY
[Gneral Hammond runs down the stairs from his office, arriving in the Control Room just as Daniel, Teal'c, and Carter run in from the corridor. The wormhole engages.]
CARTER
Where's the iris?
HAMMOND
Someone used a remote.
DANIEL
Who? We're all here.
HAMMOND
Well, whoever it is has our codes.
(into the microphone)
Heads up people!
[In the Gate Room, soldiers aim their weapons at the wormhole. Tension rises in both the Gate Room and the Control Room, until O'Neill flies through the middle of the Gate. He catches himself and runs a few steps down the ramp.]
O'NEILL
(waves his arms and yells angrily)
Hey, what're you guys doing leaving without me?
[In the Control Room, everyone stares in stunned silence. In the Gate Room, O'Neill looks around at the soldiers pointing guns at him. He takes off his sunglasses and walks down the ramp, gesturing towards them.]
O'NEILL
What's with all the ordinance?
HAMMOND
(over the microphone)
Who are you?
[O'Neill comes to a halt, staring up at him.]
O'NEILL
What do you mean, who am I? (He looks around, sounding slightly alarmed)
What the heck's going on here?
HAMMOND
Good question. Take him into custody.
[Two Airmen take a surprised O'Neill by the arms and lead him away.]

EXT—HOTEL ENTRANCE, DAY
[Rain pours down as Daniel, carrying two large suitcases, exits the hotel. He pulls his jacket's hood over his head to provide some protection and tries to cover his one suitcase with his coat. An uniformed man with an umbrella approaches from a car parked just outside the hotel.]
KAWALSKI
Doctor Jackson?
DANIEL
What? Yes?
KAWALSKI
Someone wants to speak with you.
INT—CAR
[Catherine flips through a file, which includes a diploma from UCLA, as the officer continues to talk to Daniel.]
DANIEL
The Air Force? What's this? What is this?
KAWALSKI
Could you step over to the car, please.
[Catherine glances over just as Daniel bends down and squints to look inside, while still several feet away.]
KAWALSKI
Sir?
DANIEL
Am I going somewhere?
[The car driver, also standing with an umbrella just outside the door, opens it for Daniel as he approaches.]
KAWALSKI
You're going to be fine. We'll take care of these.
[He takes Daniel's shoulder bag as Daniel cautiously drops his other suitcase and sits in the car. He warily looks at Catherine. She passes over a photograph of a smiling couple playing with a baby.]
CATHERINE
Jackson, are those your parents?
[Daniel glances from her to the photograph, his motion to lower his hood arrested for a moment.]
DANIEL
Foster parents.

Apollo 8 Engine Fires Flawlessly at Critical Moments
By WILLIAM K. STEVENS DEC. 26, 1968
At some of the most critical moments in their flight to the moon, the Apollo 8 astronauts have placed their lives in the hands of a fire-belching midget that stands three feet, five inches tall, wears a skirt, drinks exotic potions like dimethyl hydrazine, and has an active life of only 750 seconds.

from my journal as Kerry Burgess
Tuesday, August 28, 2018 at 04:32 am (Pacific Time USA)
I wonder if that's the same day I remember graduating from United States Navy basic training in Orlando.
Must have been.
The uncertainty in my mind is because of vague memories I still have about those last days before we left.
I can still visualize that last day, had my seabag and sunglasses on and the company commander sending us off and I can visualize myself walking for the last time out the door of that barracks we had been in for 8 weeks.
I went across base to begin Basic Electricity and Electronics School for the Electronics Technician occupation rating, a rating I chose because it was one of only two ratings in the Advanced Electronics Field, along with Fire Controlman, and the ET rating required several more weeks of electronics training than FC and I found that appealing to me. Several weeks later, being completely unprepared for unhindered access to cheap alcohol, having been sheltered from alcohol and then on my own with no old woman screeching at me, with no closed door in her house I could ever escape to away from her, I let myself get kicked out of school and sent out to the fleet to work in the deck department as a non-rated sailor. Working my butt off, as since 14 years old, from my own personal initiative and with no personal role models in my past experience, I had become accustomed to regular employment, I was allowed to select a rating to aspire for and I chose the gun/missile Fire Controlman (FC) (in the last days of the Fire Control Technician Missiles (FTM) rating) and worked my way back up and my next fleet assignment was with a bunch of push-button technicians whose career track had been the same as my original aspirations with the ET rating. They went to school for several courses of instruction and were advanced to Petty Officer Third Class (E-4 paygrade after entering recruit training as E-3 paygrade) without ever working a day in the fleet. I had spent over a year - a total of 419 days to be exact - on a shakedown period for the USS Taylor FFG-50 where I had many responsibilities including being responsible for the boatswain locker, helmsman, lookout, repair locker personnel, damage control, others.
All I know for certain is my official military records tell me I was transferred from basic training by the United States Navy on Monday, July 16, 1984.
The previous Friday was the 13th.
The details I vaguely recall are about how my company, C155, finished the course of instruction several days before the other company's finished. The reason, I vaguely recall, is that several companies began the course of instruction during the same week but on different days of the week. So we started on a day before the others started and we finished a few days before the last company finished. If we started on a Monday then others started on Friday. So we finished on a Monday and they finished on a Friday. But we all graduated on the same day, which I believe was a Friday and I have reason to believe was the 13th. I can't imagine we were goofing off for over a week waiting for the other company to finish the course. K076 was the female company I remember starting with us on the same day and I think they were in the same large classroom with us for classroom instruction. I remember a vast number of sailors being on the field for graduation ceremony and my company was a large group of sailors.
The answer might be out there somewhere on the internet but I can't find it.
