Saturday Afternoon Matinee- Operation Petticoat

Quite possibly my favorite Cary Grant movie, and neck and neck with Down Periscope for my favorite submarine movie.

    Best ever : Das Boot
    Best Pacific: Operation Pacific, only sub movie that addresses the Mk14 Torpedo Balls-up. Plus, John Wayne 🙂

    Ken-
    Best Ever: Down Periscope.
    Das Boot is a good movie, but no other movie really comes close to portraying the submarine community as accurately as Down Periscope.
    I say this as someone that proudly wears dolphins and a pocket rocket, and I’m not kidding.
    Seriously.

    First movie I ever bought on DVD. My grandfather (an ETC at the time) was an extra on one of the destroyers used during filming.
