Cary Grant is the captain of a submarine sent to gather intelligence for the first bombing of Japan. Along the way, the young crew deals with their first time away from home, the ever-present threat of injury or death, and the occasional bought of appendicitis. Poor back projection and obvious models make it clear they never left the Warner studio. Overlong but entertaining propagandistic hokum from the early days of WWII.
