Double history: Navy and TV

9/10

"Discovering this series and this entry entirely by accident, I am very glad I stopped to watch. It is based on a true story, and two of the real-life participants are here for a brief discussion. Usually a villain, the great Myron Healey plays one of those real-life participants, the submarine captain who is an admiral, retired, at the time of the show's production. There seems to be a lot of stock footage, which just adds some more realism, and the entire cast is composed of very capable performers. I'm grateful this entry is available on YouTube, even though it is too often too..."
