It is the final year of World War II. Somewhere in the Pacific a United States submarine is prowling the sea, seeking an enemy to sink. The officer of the deck and a quartermaster stand on her bridge, binoculars at their eyes. Above them on the platform on either side of the periscope shears, two more sailors scan the horizon. Behind them the radar antenna turns round and round, sweeping the horizon with its electronic eye.
