Lt. Commander Rabb and Major [=MacKenzie=] are sent to investigate. What seems like an open and shut case of dereliction of duty becomes a little more complicated when the pilot interjects a belief in a "voice from God" telling him not to fire. Rabb convinces the CAG to let that pilot fly again, with Rabb flying wing. Mid-flight, they discover what may have been the root of the pilot's indecision. But this time, that pilot may not survive.

!! Tropes



* {{Foreshadowing}}: Harm's incredibly precise maneuver to nudge his wingman' plane to safety will be seen again next season.
* ImprobablePilotingSkills: Harm nudges his wingtip just close enough to his unconscious wingman' plane's wing, so that the lift force from both wings induces a roll. Harm keeps it up until the plane rolls 45 degrees, disengages the level flight autopilot and begins a downward dive.
