    • Trivia
      In the scene of a strafing mission against the Japanese-held island of Truk, one of the figures seen running for cover is an American POW. According to his autobiography, that prisoner was Maj. Gregory H. 'Pappy' Boyington, the highest-scoring U.S. Marine pilot of the war, who had been shot down a few months before in the Solomon Islands.
    • Quotes

      Narrator: [commenting on the Japanese pilots] These little monkeys are fancy fliers.

    • Crazy credits
      Most of the credits appear as if they had been typed out on a teletype machine.

    Great color WWII action
    Loved it! Forget the fact that this is a documentary - it is very interesting from beginning to end. Lots of color gun camera film throughout and shipboard crash landings. Very well done chronicle of a carrier and its mission in the Pacific during WWII.
