dubbed version, when the time travelers arrive in February  1944, a US Navy officer sees their spacecraft, but his commander  dismisses the possibility of a UFO; the commander then says, "You  can tell your son about when hes born, Spielberg." This is an  obvious reference to Steven Spielberg (I) (qv), whose father  Arnold served in the war and whose war stories inspired the frequent  WWII settings of his films.
