Jebediah Hawks (Jeff Chandler) commands and prepares his sailors for battle in the Pacific theater during World War II.

| | One of my Top 10 All-time Favorites | OldFilmFan 01/28/2007 | | This film has some of the best character development in multiple characters I've ever seen in the movies. A story of moral courage, compassion, triumph over handicap, and hope for all who face the loss of a faculty -- this film is a must for young minds and old. Brilliant from start to finish. |

| | Great Memories | Anonymous 01/15/2007 | | Every year or so my father would break out old 16mm home movies, and this classic that we also had on 16mm. We looked forward to watching it all most as eagerly as we did the Wizard of Oz. I highly recommend introducing this short (11 minutes or so) movie to any child 10 or younger. It is very cute. We rescently dubbed this film onto a DVD and my 17 and 19 year old of course didn't get it's greatness, but it still brings back fond memories for my siblings and I who are now 55, 52, 45, 41, and 40. |
