The gallant war record of the U.S. Navy Armed Guard went almost unrecognized for more than 60 years until this documentary helped to get them placed in the U.S. Congressional Record. During World War II they had 710 ships sunk beneath them. Serving as gunners aboard poorly armed supply ships, they faced the enemy’s fire power in every corner of the world. This is the long overdue account of their heroism and sacrifices while protecting the delivery of essential war supplies to allied troops.
