What happens
Underwater Warrior is a 1958 American CinemaScope war drama film telling the story of the US Navy's Underwater Demolition Teams between World War II and the Korean War. It was based on the 1957 nonfiction book The Naked Warriors by Commander Francis Douglas Fane. Dan Dailey played Fane with two naval officer divers also appearing in the film, Lt Alex Fane, Francis's son and Lt Jon Lindbergh, son of Charles Lindbergh. Producer Ivan Tors subsequently produced the syndicated television series Sea Hunt, also on underwater diving themes. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
