About This Item
Set on a remote Pacific island during the waning days of the World War II, this classic humor novel about the public relations sector of the Navy follows the adventures of a group of young officers, commissioned without the corrupting influence of any intervening naval training, as they bravely face wartime adversities with comic ingenuity. The colorful cast of characters and absurd situations combine to create a rousing entertainment that will appeal to everyone who enjoys the high-spirited side of naval service.
