00:00Uncle Sam's future Admirals are on the march at the world-famed Naval Academy in Maryland.

00:21Men of destiny fighting to find their place under the red, white, and blue.

00:26Against this colorful background of comradeship and achievement, of prowess in the classroom and on the athletic fields,

00:34transpires one of the finest human dramas ever to reach the stream.

00:38The story of three men who together found glory and adventure.

00:43One, a son of wealth.

00:45I have my appointment to the Naval Academy, Annapolis.

00:48Another, a small-town football hero.

00:52Is it it?

00:53It's it.

00:54And the third, an enlisted sailor.

00:58I made it.

01:00Ha ha! I made it!

01:01Hush, hush, hush!

01:03It's a shame you take this rigging off.

01:28It's catnip to women.

01:29Ash does most of the dancing for our room.

01:34Yes, in fact, I have to take care of all the social amenities.

01:37Truck's too busy trying to be an admiral.

01:40Ash is more like a marine.

01:41He lands, and in five minutes he has the situation well in hand.

01:46Do you know who I am, mister?

01:48Yes, sir.

01:48You're a double-bilging slug by the name of Hornet

01:50who keeps a maple paddle in his room to use on plebes half his size.

01:54Meet me in the gym in 15 minutes, mister, and be prepared to fight.

01:57A pleasure, sir.

01:58And I'm going to knock your block off, sir.

02:01Getting into the academy meant everything to me.

02:03I felt that my father's name would keep me out.

02:06But with the commission and 40 years of service ahead of me,

02:09I knew that somehow, someday, I could clear his name.

02:12The master's name would keep me out.

02:19The master's name is the master's name.

02:22The master's name would keep me out.
