I just did some looking. The film quality is quite poor, but you can sort of make out part of the engraving next to the ejection port: | |||

The U.S. NAvy uses shotguns on it's ships. Supposedly buckshot is safer around nuclear reactors. Possibly the filmakers were thinking of that. --Jcordell 11:23, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
