    I wish my grandfather was still alive (he passed in 2005) so he could have seen this movie. He was a Fire Controlman on the USS Flaherty - a destroyer escort in the North Atlantic in WWII and part of a Hunter/Killer Task Group that went after U-Boats. His ship was there when U-505 was forced to the surface and captured off of Africa in June of 1944 and his destroyer was responsible for sinking U-546 almost a year later (revenge after U-546 sunk USS Frederick C. Davis, killing 115 of her crew). I still have his U.S. Navy issued gaiters with his last name and "1943" (the year he entered the service) stamped on them. He would have loved this movie, though knowing him, he probably would have pointed out any and all inaccuracies. I'm 38 now, but I can still remember him and I watching Das Boot together as a kid on a number of occasions - that was his favorite movie. I think he would have really liked this one!

    @Josh-99 3 ปีที่แล้ว +896

    As a former Surface Warfare Officer (qualified SWO), I was impressed with how accurate the commands of the captain were, along with the replies from the ship's crew. The movie writers clearly did their research.
    I've literally never heard "meet her" in a movie, despite the fact that it's used all the time during real-life high-speed maneuvers. It's similar to issuing the order "stead as she goes" but giving the helmsman the latitude to use hard opposite rudder to get on the ordered course as quickly as possible, including putting the rudder on the stops if necessary. It's actually a pretty dangerous order to give, as you essentially yield control of the rudder entirely to the judgment of the helmsman, which means you need one who knows what they are doing.

    • @girl1213
      @girl1213 2 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      As I understand it, they really wanted to give as much accuracy as possible. This is because the book "The Good Shepard" by CS Forester, which the film is adapted from, was a retelling of how it was to be part of the Battle of Atlantic. There was no sugar-coating or added drama there, just a very factual piece of nautical fiction. This included all the little details like how commands are issued and why you need to trust your crew to know what they're doing.
      As a civilian, it really helped me understand a lot of things about a ship is run as much as it gave me historical information. It's a very accurate of what could be a first-hand account of what a first-time wartime mission is like, even for a seasoned captain. I'm glad to know the movie is doing a remarkable job at doing the same.

    My dad, like Michael Lawson's dad (in another post here), served on a destroyer in WW2. His ship, the Gwin, saw a lot of action. On 13 July 1943, they were in the "slot" in the Solomon's. About 1:30AM the Gwin was hit in the forward engine room by a "Long Lance" torpedo, killing all in that location in a huge fireball. Dad's cruising station was the forward engine room but when the shooting started, his battle station was the Number 2 Gun so his life was spared. This movie made me a lot more aware of what he went through but I can't totally understand because I never went through it. My dad has always been a hero to me.

      @@fredguitarman3536 absolutely true. The North Atlantic is normally rough seas. Especially between sept through april. It's winter, very cold, windy, rough heavy seas, waves are easily 35 feet from top to bottom. In heavy seas, the waves get as high as 50 feet. No kidding. The ship is forever listing left/right, and there is also rocking front to back. When walking down passage ways you're banging into the bulkheads (walls). no hot meals, and going to the bathroom is a major challenge. Have I mentioned sea sickness. It takes effort when opening a hatch (door) as air rushes in. So you must be careful to watch your hands so they are not on the edge of the hatch - the sucking in pressure of air from outside -> in, can cause hatches to slam and you could lose fingers. Also everything is metal. So very cold and slippery on the outside and metal won't give when you slam into it. This all of the normal stuff. When you're outside the skin of the ship on the main deck, you must hold onto to the steel cable rails or metal railings, or you could get swept overboard. And the metal railings were always wet and slippery. In winter - covered with ice as is the deck. Have I mentioned the cold and the wind? It goes right through you - soaked and cold. I'm not even going to discuss going north of Iceland. I have sailed up the coast of Greenland and sailed around the northern tip of Norway. Well north of the Arctic Circle. -40 degrees every day. In September, the sun was on the horizon all day. Quite an experience. Also saw the Aurora Borealis. Frigate, destroyer, and cruiser crews are a tough hardened bunch. US Navy 1983-90.

    My grandfather was in the Navy, in the Pacific theatre. His ship took part in 11 invasions, including Guadalcanal & Okinawa. In a huge Irish Catholic family (he had 9 children) I’m the only one he EVER spoke a single syllable to about the war. In the last few months of his life. He was such an old softie late in life; couldn’t have loved his grand & great grandkids more. But that was the only time I ever saw a tear in his eye not at a funeral. Telling me about the heros he served with. That fought and died side by side, for you & I. And I tell you this: that man loved those boys on his boat in a way I know i could never never truly understand what that is. He and his friends would instantly lay down their very lives for one another or for the success of the mission in a split second, without a tiny flicker of thought or calculation. And did. Every single day of that war from Dec.7 ‘41 to Aug ‘45. And I may never know brotherhood like that in my life. But I do absolutely know this: those boys, goin halfway across the world to defeat fascism and save the world....they were mostly just kids, 18,19, 20 (my grampy was 21). And these young boys-quickly-turned-men were more noble, principled, and honorable, and had more courage and unflinching bravery, sense of duty & sacrifice to the greater good, and faithfulness to one another than I believe almost anyone else alive today can even imagine.
    They truly WERE the Greatest Generation ever.
    We owe them everything. Especially the heros who paid the ultimate price for OUR freedom, and for so many of us, our very lives-as my grandpa taught me, many of our relatives only made it home because of their unimaginable courage. And that is the actual real TRUTH, not a nice sounding cliche. These young men who showed the world what it truly meant to be absolutely unshakable in the face of unspeakable terrors, to fight for REAL righteous ideals of truth, honor, and the freedom of their friends, family, country, and the world. No better men ever lived. May those not here be in a place now they deserve. Those men and women of true character, virtue and integrity, cut from the greatest cloth people have ever been born of, who saved the world through their grit, determination, and absolute, ironclad unwillingness to do anything but what was right.
    If you have a chance to still talk with a WWII vet-you better take that treasure while you barely still can. Whatever it is. And savor it forever. Tell them you know how in debt you are to them.
    My god bless them all.

He said all they had to do is win. And the Government was stopping the Soldiers from winning and it pissed him off very much. He was for sure on y'alls side.

It seemed that everything was stacked against our men and women all in the name of keeping that senseless conflict going so that Wall Street and the politicians they owned could just get richer and richer. Then Johnson somehow managed to get Kennedy eliminated and really screwed things up by stopping the B-52 bombing missions. Even an NVA General after it was all over made the statement that we had them until the bombing stopped and then they knew it was over for us. So many of my friends and high school classmates never came back except in a cheap, government furnished box! All of those lives wasted for no logical reason.

He was a Gunner's Mate manning a 40 mm antiaircraft mount, and was shooting at the Japanese plane as it came in low. He could see the pilot's face, and said he was smiling as he crashed into the ship. He never forgot that creepy smile on the suicide pilot's face for the rest of his life. He said it would frequently haunt his dreams at night.

      Some the most hazardous combat duty in the closing months of WWII was being a member of the crew of a US Navy destroyer on the picket line between Okinawa and the Japanese planes coming down from the home islands to get at the fleet which was held stationary in a relatively small patch of ocean by the need to support the Marines and the Army for months. During the war, the effectiveness of the Kamikaze was deliberately downplayed to protect the sailors and because, although they didn't sink any large capital ships they did a great deal of damage to many vessels, including to several fleet carriers. I think a great film could be made about the destroyers on the picket line.

      @@RLJmusic4life That smiling pilot may already have been dead. One of the problems of dealing with kamikazes was that even the lightly constructed Japanese aircraft were surprisingly resistant to hits from 20mm and 40mm. Again and again planes which were literally shredded by AA guns and obviously on the verge of disintegrating kept coming on carried by momentum and guided by pilots who were not concerned about making it back home. If they didn't burn, they had to literally be blown apart in order to stop them. It's hard for those of us who weren't there to fathom the psychological effect the kamikazes had on tired and stressed crews who spent hours at general quarters for days on end.

    Finally, somebody who has seen the movie for its real value. There's no character building because it is not needed. It is a movie about the extraordinary efforts of normal, regular people during those times. It focuses on the key elements: intense stress and exhaustion those people were exposed to.

    9/10. Great movie. Not much for character development, but it tells its story from a realistic place. You feel like part of Hanks crew, they’re pretty accurate with actual ship speak and tactics and you do see the accumulation effect on a captain his position. One of my favorite WWII movies.

      Exactly. Lack of sleep was the main challenge, even for the ratings. The smallest Brit protection was the flower class corvette which rolled heavily in most weathers and prohibited any ready. Even the destroyers were fairly undulating.

    I was a BM3 in the USN I was on a tin can for only three weeks, They are the real bad asses in the navy. Life on a tin can is very very difficult especially in rough seas OMG never thought a ship can go from starboard to port rolling like that. After the storm we cleaned up the puke on the bullheads, because when she was rolling we where walking from the deck to starboard and port bulkheads. I would never believe it until I experienced it. don't know how they do it all the time, they are bad ass.

      The little corvettes managed to be *worse*. At ~900 tons, they tended to roll a lot, and their accomodations were barely even an afterthought for people who designed them.
      I suppose it was acceptable because they were never intended to serve high-intensity escort duties on the open ocean, but ended up there anyways.

      It’s just a shame this is Hollywood garbage. A U Boat would never stay at periscope depth when under attack like that or fire a single torpedo at a warship. They always fired a spread of 3 at 5 degree intervals and then crash dived to avoid any surface fire or depth charges. Once again historically inaccurate Hollywood crap.
