The court martial at the beginning of the movie is about an incident on the USS Bayonne. As reference is made to the "forward turret" and the name is that of a city, the referenced ship would have to be a cruiser. However, no cruiser or any other type of ship in the U.S. Navy was named Bayonne before the war. In 1943, during World War II, the USS Bayonne (PG-129 / PF-21) was constructed. It was originally classified as a gunboat (PG), but this was later changed to a frigate (PF). See more »Soundtracks

Before the Village People popularized the United States Navy with their song "In The Navy" this aquatic based branch of the armed forces was featured in many a Hollywood film during World War Two. "The Navy Comes Through" is one of those films and it features Pat O'Brien and George Murphy who are at odds with each other as they head out to sea as part of a gunnery crew to sink Nazi vessels. The overall theme to the film is a common one to WW II era war movies. A group of men with disparate backgrounds (in this case an Austrian-American, Ricky Ricardo, the ubiquitous guy from Brooklyn, and the boy who will become a man once he has seen some action) are thrown together to stick it to the Nazis. The idea is that America, the land of the melting- pot, can prevail over totalitarianism as long as everyone is willing to pull together. During the movie O'Brien's acting style is consistently blunt. The interior of the German subs are enormous. The action is well paced, and in the end the Navy really does comes through.
