This World War II documentary rests on an unusual thesis it argues that in the wake of Pearl Harbor the actions precipitated by the USAF that truly helped turn the tide were perpetrated not by the widelyballyhooed USN aviators or aircraft carriers but by the American submarines silent warriors beneath the deceptively placid ocean surface The subs after all were responsible for gravely wounding Japans industry all but destroying the Japanese merchant fleet and therefore preventing reinforcement of Japanese military garrisons In relaying this story the program draws on a series of interviews with military veterans and endless archival footage of naval battles that chronologically tells the gripping story of the Pacific Front of the war
