Hodges (Jones) repays an old debt to Childers (Jackson) by defending him in his court martial.

Trivia:

The USS Wake Island LHA-7 is fictional and not an actual US Navy ship. The ship seen in the movie is actually the USS Tarawa LHA-1.

Quote: Major Mark Biggs

There are rules and Marines are sworn to uphold them.
