Billis resonated with a lot of the 1949 audience, who knew characters like him all branches of the armed forces. Laura, whose grandfather was a Machinist's Mate on supply ships in the Pacific Theater

Actually showing Billis stowing away and its aftermath does take up a lot of time in the film, from what I remember. I can see why Logan and Paul Osborn would want to show this rather than have it revealed through exposition, but it's one instance in which having it talked about might have been the better choice.
