Twice in a
single generation,

the catastrophe of world war
has fallen upon us.

Twice in our lifetime
has the long arm of fate

reached out across the oceans

to bring the United States
into the forefront of the battle.

Our American
merchant ships must be free

to carry our American goods
into the harbors of our friends.

And our American merchant ships
must be protected by our American Navy.

The brunt of the war
has fallen upon the sailormen,

and we have lost nearly 3,000 lives

in a hard,
unrelenting struggle,

which goes on night and day

and is going on now
without a moment's respite.

The goods will be
delivered by this nation,

whose navy believes in the tradition

of "damn the torpedoes,
full speed ahead."

"Dear Lord,
let your holy angel be with me,

that the evil foe may have no power
over me. Amen."

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Cigars?

"Yesterday, today and forever."

That's beautiful.
I'll put it on my tree.

All right.
Your turn. Come on.

All right.

Monogrammed.

What's this?

Congratulations.

Your first command.
At last.

Aw.

After all those years of being fitted
and retained, a Fletcher-class destroyer.

You deserve it.

I knew after Pearl Harbor
they would be needing men like you.

I report to Norfolk
right after the first of the year.

Norfolk?
Not Treasure Island?

That's the navy in a nutshell,
isn't it?

Yeah.

Then the Caribbean
for training and tactics.

Jamaica, the Bahamas, Cuba.
Rum and Coca-Cola.

- Mm.
- Then active duty.

Come with me.

I mean it.

So I can ask you to marry me
on a tropical beach.

Oh, I'd like that,
but we can't.

The world has gone crazy, Ernie.

Let's wait until we can be together.

I will always be looking for you, Evie.

No matter where I am.

Even if I'm a thousand miles away,

I will be hoping I'll see you
come around the corner.

Because when you do, it's...
It's the greatest feeling in the world.

- Morning.
- Morning, Captain.

Charlie, how are the overnights?

Convoy's three days into the Pit.

No contacts, no incidents,
except on your ship, sir.

Two bored sailors with time
on their hands, which became fists.

Who?
Shannon and Flusser.

- Crew's getting nervous, Ernie.
- Sleep well, sir?

I've never had the gift
for sleeping on board.

Hmm.
And I can't sleep anywhere else, sir.

- Amen.
- Amen.

Sea's a bit high to serve hot food.

I could manage a ham steak
and eggs for you, sir.

- This will do. Thank you, Cleveland.
- Aye, aye, Captain.

Report to the commanding officer.
Clear the room.

Uncover.

Explain yourselves.

Flusser.

I regret the incident, sir.

Shannon.

I too regret the incident.

I will tolerate no more fisticuffs
on my ship.

So...

"restore the relationships you have
damaged and fill me with peace."

Sir?

Captain requested,
bridge, sir. Captain requested, bridge.

Repetition will bring hell
down from on high.

Back to your duties.

Count your blessings.

Captain on the bridge.

Aye.

Sir, good morning.

Escorts Eagle and Harry are
out of position, six miles from convoy.

They've been off on their own, sir,
for roughly two hours.

Eagle skipper announced,
"Starting the day with a good hunt," sir,

and then Harry joined in.

Message from
the commodore, sir.

Read it out.

"Huff Duff." High-frequency
direction finding. Continue, please.

bearing 087 degrees.

Range 15 to 20 miles."

Commodore says
a likely U-boat, sir.

"Comescort to Comconvoy.
Will run it down."

Aye, aye, sir.

Aye, sir.

Eagle, Harry, Greyhound.

What is your ETA
for resuming new stations?

Greyhound, Eagle.
We can be at our station in 20 minutes.

to port of the convoy.

Yes, I know, Harry.
Return to your station at best speed.

Sir, I relieved Mister Carling.
Have the deck and the conn.

Mister Watson, we have a target
bearing 087, range 15 to 20 miles.

Messenger. Sir.

Go to my cabin and bring me
my sheepskin coat. You'll find it.

Aye, aye, sir.

Combat, Conn. Charlie.

We're running down a likely sub
bearing 087, range 15 to 20 miles.

I'm hoping it shows up
on your surface radar.

Conn, Combat.
Aye, aye, sir.

Now hear this,

This is the captain.

We are running down the target.

Let us attend our duties well.
This is what we've trained for.

- Martin, what you got?
- Nothing yet, sir.

Got him.

Conn, Combat. Target bearing 092,
range 15 miles.

Let's have our eyes on him.

Aye, aye, sir.

Target's disappeared, sir.
Fell off the radar about six miles out.

What's this, Charlie?

Looks like he's dived, sir,
by the way the pips faded out.

He must've seen us, sir.
Got his air and dove.

Pips had him on course for us
and the convoy, sir.

Can you plot a search radius?

I could, sir, but in ten minutes,
the radius would be three square miles.

Give me a course to intercept

if the target maintains this course
at six knots.

Aye, aye, sir.

Conn, Combat.
Course to intercept is 096.

Warn me two miles out
from this intercept.

Aye, aye, sir.

This is the captain.
It seems we sank that target.

This was an all-hands job.

Well done.

Secure from general quarters.
Take us to Condition 3

and arrange for hot food
if at all possible.

Aye, aye, sir.

Secure from general quarters.

All hands,
secure from general quarters.

Escorts, Greyhound.
We have sighted evidence of a kill.

Congratulations, Captain.
More food for the fish.

The prize is yours, sir,

but we'll need evidence of a kill
for the Admiralty.

Nothin' but the captain's trousers
will do, I'm afraid.

Just return to station.

Congratulations, sir.

Shall I steer a course for the debris
to verify the kill?

No, Mister Watson.

Convoy is unguarded.
Take us back to station.

Aye, aye, sir.

Eppstine, is it?

Eppstein, sir.

Good work.
Thank you.

It's why I'm aboard, sir.

Hey, Cap, pulled this corned beef
and onion, sliced thick for you.

Gotta eat, sir.

Nah, take that to Lieutenant Cole.

I bet he's worked up an appetite.

Now, Mister Dawson.

It's from the Admiralty, sir.

They've intercepted
multiple German transmissions.

It's at least two hours old.

"Enemy activity expected
at Position Oboe."

Congratulations, Captain.

It's our first U-boat.

Congratulations, sir.
Fifty less krauts.

Yes. Fifty souls.

Sir, permission to secure
boilers two and four?

Mister Nystrom,
are you not the officer of the deck?

Yes, sir, I am, sir.

Then take that to the chief engineer
without bothering me.

Aye, sir.
Uh, our noon position report, sir.

I'm estimating we are at Position Oboe

in the North Atlantic,
surrounded by open sea.

Sir,

noon fuel reports will be slightly off
due to that U-boat chase.

Still waiting on reports from Dodge,

but Viktor and James are reporting
diminishing reserves.

Send a reply.

"Comescort to James. Please use
utmost efforts to conserve fuel."

Aye, sir.

Sir, after that last pattern,
now might be a good time

to bring up the extra supply of depth
charges stowed in the crew quarters.

Attack within range and good luck.

A wolf pack shadowing us.
They'll attack as a group.

Yeah, waiting for nightfall,

Gloves. Fur, not knit.
Aye, aye, sir.

Chief Rudel,
I need these wipers operating.

It's not electrical, sir.

Good luck."

Send that.

You wanted to see me, sir?

Yeah. What can we do
about this damn interference?

It's not interference, sir.
I checked everything.

The pilot light's on,
no surge currents,

and I reset the overload relay
four days ago.

I could reset it again, but we're gonna be
down nearly two hours. Waste of time, sir.

Bridge.

"The night cometh
when no man can work," Ernie.

Rudel's done all he can.

We're just gonna have to live with
the radar how it is for now, Captain.

Understood.
Thank you, Charlie.

Captain, need to slow
in the sea, or we risk blowing a turbine.

Understood.

Mister Harbutt, she can't take it.
Slow us down a bit.

Get him out here.

Sir, a message from Cadena.

Read it out.

"Merchant ships vulnerable
at rear of convoy.

Attack imminent.
Request your earliest assistance."

Captain, survivors 500 yards starboard,
sir. Proceed with rescue?

Get down to midships,
put down a scrambling net

- and get those men out of the water.

Stop engines.
All slow astern.

Mister Harbutt,

- Aye, aye, sir.
- Signals?

- Aye, sir.
- "Comescort to Cadena."

"Will assist as soon as possible."

Aye, sir.

Give me your hand.
Keep climbing.

Krauts call it a Pillenwerfer, sir.
It's German for something.

"Pill-thrower."

- Yes, go on.
- Uh, I'd never heard of one before,

but I got a buddy who was on the Kidd,
and he had one on his first crossing.

It's a mechanical decoy
about the size of an icebox,

and it shoots out gas
like an Alka-Seltzer.

The krauts just drop it in the water,

and it hangs there
while we waste depth charges on it.

Detail it in your after-action report.

Make sure all the other operators
are familiar with it.

I... I should've caught it sooner, sir.

No, you did good work.
Thank you.

Sir. Aye, sir.

You couldn't have known, Ernie.

To confirm, targets remain at speed
just outside our perimeter.

Greyhound. Greyhound, Greyhound.

This is Gray Wolf.

We hunt you and your friends
Eagle, Dicky and Harry.

We watch your ships sinking into the deep.

We hear the screams of your comrades
as they die.

How many of them will there be
before you join them?

The Gray Wolf is so very hungry.

- Your women will learn of your dying...
- Greyhound to all escorts.

- And weep into the long night before...
Switch TBS traffic to channel Zebra.

- They turn to the arms of their lovers.
- Execute.

Keep apprised of Eagle's target bearing
and notify me when we're two miles out.

Aye, aye, sir.

Sir, it's about the consumption
of depth charges.

- Yes?
- Last pattern makes 32 cans fired.

How many full patterns do we have left?

None, sir.

We're down to six charges.

We pulled everything from below
last watch, if you recall, sir.

Yes, yes, of course.
Thank you, Mister Flipper.

It's Fippler, sir.

Mister Fippler, we must leave off
the firing of full patterns.

What I was gonna suggest, sir.

"Wise as a serpent,
harmless as a dove."

- Captain.
- I know it's risky, Charlie, but

we need to break protocol.

How soon can we reach air cover?
No more zigzags, no evasive maneuvers.

Aye, aye, sir.

Go, Charlie.

We can be in range
of air cover in 24 hours.

That's 0800
if we shift to a direct course, sir.

Thanks, Charlie.

What happened to him?

Took a header.
Gave me something more to do.

- That for the captain?
- Yeah.

Man hasn't had a bite to eat
or been off his feet since we left.

General quarters, general quarters.
All hands, man your battle stations.

We're turning
to intercept at 16 knots, sir.

- We'll do our best to hammer him.
- Understood, Dicky.

Keep him under by all means.

- Keep him under.
- Aye, sir.

Come on, clear.

Get clear, Dicky. Clear!

Corpsman! Corpsman!

Dicky's clear!
All mounts, commence fire!

Get some water in there!

Dicky, Greyhound.
What is your damage?

Greyhound, our guns couldn't depress
far enough to do any damage.

But, at 20 yards, the shells
went right through us without detonating.

Are you seaworthy?

All three hits
were well above the waterline, sir.

We'll have our holes patched,
and we'll be back in the hunt.

Very good. Return to your
screening station at best speed.

Direct hit on mount 43, sir.

Damage Control reports fire,
abaft frame 24.

There's no flooding below the waterline,
and the casualty count is coming, sir.

Three severely wounded.

Bonnor. Meyer.
Forbrick is in critical shape. Three dead.

Who are the dead?

Pisani, gunner's mate, third class.
Marx, seaman, second.

Cleveland, messmate.

Took a hit at the portside 40-millimeter
gun tub, loading ammunition, sir.

I've got no room for corpses
down below, sir.

Not with the four we pulled from Vasco.

I can arrange for a service
within the next ten minutes, sir.

Of course.
All hands.

Aye, aye, Captain.

Bill?

How bad was he hit?

Sir?

George Cleveland.

Completely mutilated, sir.
All of them.

"We therefore commit
the earthly remains of Anthony Pisani",

Daniel Marx,
and George Cleveland to the deep,

looking for the general Resurrection
in their last day

and the life of the world to come,
through our Lord Jesus Christ,

at whose second coming
in glorious majesty to judge the world

the sea shall give up her dead,

and corruptible bodies of those
who sleep in him

shall be changed
and made like unto his glorious body

according to the m-mighty working

"whereby he is a-able to subdue
all things unto himself. Amen."

All stop.

XO commands all stop.

- All stop.
- All stop, aye.

Now,
all hands, bury the dead.

- Left standard rudder. Aye, sir.

Harry, Dicky. Greyhound.
Eagle has been hit.

I am going to his aid, rear of the convoy.
Maintain your sweep. Go easy on your fuel.

- Aye, sir.
- Aye, aye, sir.

- Messenger, my glasses.
- Aye, sir.

- Meet her.
- Aye, sir. Heading up the lane.

Right standard rudder.
Right standard rudder. Aye, sir.

- All ahead flank.
- All ahead flank. Aye, sir.

- Messenger.
- Sir.

Mister Harbutt.
Sir.

That's Eagle and Cadena.

Circle them at one mile
to cover the rescue.

- Helm, left standard rudder. Come to 225.
- Left standard rudder...

Eagle, Greyhound.
What is your status?

We were hit forward of the engine room
and have a fire below deck.

Some casualties.

The Kong Gustav was hit first,
sank in three minutes.

We saw no survivors.

It's a bad afternoon, sir.

How seaworthy are you?

We have a five-degree list at starboard,
and we're down at the stern,

but we'll tow all right up to five knots.

We have a flap of plate sticking up,
scooping in the sea.

The list gets worse if we make any speed.

We must keep you afloat, Eagle.

We'll do all the sea allows, sir.

Very well. Greyhound out.

I'm ready to relieve you, sir.

Very well.
We're steady on course 225.

And we're at standard speed
with fuel conservation.

I relieve you, sir.

Sir?

Sir, I stand relieved.
Mister Carling has the deck and the conn.

Very well.

Mister Carling,
Cadena has Eagle under tow at four knots.

Continue circling.
We'll hold the screen at rear of convoy.

Sonar, standard sweep to starboard.

Sonar, Bridge.
Search to starboard, standard pattern.

Greyhound, Eagle.
Greyhound, Eagle.

Greyhound.

Request permission to abandon ship, sir.

The collision mats were not big enough.

We have a 15-degree list now,
and the main deck is underwater.

Well, I'm sure you've done all you could.
Permission granted.

She's been a good home, sir.
It's been an honor sailing with you.

We'll be praying for you.
Godspeed, Captain.

Thank you for a job well done.

Thank you, Cleveland.

I'm Pitts, sir.

- Thank you.
- Sir.

I need Mister Cole.

XO requested, bridge.
XO requested, bridge.

You wanted to see me, skip?

I've lost Eagle.

Harry and Dicky are low on depth charges
and fuel, as are we.

I can offer only scant protection
to the convoy.

We need air cover, Charlie.

Do...

Do I break radio silence
with a message to the Admiralty?

Or does that let the wolf pack know
just how vulnerable we are?

What would the message be?

"Help needed urgently."

No. "Help needed."
That means "urgently."

"Needed" isn't needed.
Just "help."

That's all the Admiralty needs to hear
for a modified rendezvous point.

The Germans might miss a message
as short as that.

I wouldn't need to take this risk
if I'd been smarter yesterday.

What you did yesterday got us to today.

It's not enough, Charlie.
Not nearly enough.

Message from the Admiralty, sir.

Some of it's badly scrambled, sir.
I've done my best with it.

- XO to the bridge.
- Aye, aye, sir.

What are these scrambles?

I think coded numerals, sir.
But I'm sure of that.

"Expect aircraft.

His challenge, 'Uncle William.'
Your answer, 'Baker Dog.'"

Captain?

Charlie. Message from Admiralty.

Reinforcements dispatched.

But it's only partially deciphered.

Put together a team,
see what else is there.

Aye, aye, sir.

Greyhound!

Your flock is not safe from this wolf.

We can always find you
in the night to kill you.

Escorts, Greyhound.

- Or will Dicky die next? Or Harry?
- Divert all further TBS traffic

to channel Hotel. Execute.

Thought these were numerals,
but it was "Point X-ray."

"Modify rendezvous point to Point X-ray."

- Mm-hmm. How soon?
- Something like four hours, skip.

Sir.

Messenger.
Yes, sir.

Go to my cabin and bring me my slippers.

Aye, sir.

Ah, thank you.
Return those.

Ah.

I've got two contacts
bearing 099...

Combat reports two pips,
starboard bow. Bearing 099.

The other at 168, sir.

- Boatswain, take us to white.
- Aye, aye, sir.

Charlie, these pips.

Yes, sir, we got two skunks
showing on surface radar.

They're heading straight for us.

Just two hours to the rendezvous point,
Ernie, God willin'.

All escorts, Greyhound. I have
two surface targets off to starboard.

Maintain your screens.

Mister Watson,
bring us up to general quarters.

- General quarters.
- Aye, aye, sir.

General quarters, general quarters.
All hands, man your battle stations.

Harry, Dicky. Greyhound.
I am engaging targets.

Request permission to come down
there and bounce 'em with you, sir.

- Negative, Dicky. Maintain your screen.
- Aye, sir.

- Messenger.
- Sir.

I'd like more coffee, please.

Aye, sir.

Greyhound.

Guten Morgen, Greyhound.

Did you think you had slipped away
from this Gray Wolf?

No, you did not.
You will not.

The sea favors the Gray Wolf on the hunt,

not the hound on the run.

You and your comrades will die today.

Conn, Combat.

- Radar showing contact at 110.

- Aye, aye, sir.

Conning tower, dead ahead!

We must have hit her!

Charlie! Lay a course to open the arcs

Left full rudder, slow to two-thirds.
After batteries, fire as you bear.

Reply, "Baker Dog."

Right standard rudder!

Mounts 41 and 42,

open fire to mark the target
for that aircraft!

Mark target for that aircraft.

Good work.

Sir, I stand relieved.
Mister Carling has the deck.

Very well.

Messenger.

- Yes, sir.
- Write this.

"To Comconvoy and all escorts."

Sonar reports no contacts.
Radar reports no contacts.

"All escorts, resume station."

- Send it.

My heading is 290, sir.

Forward Lookout reports ship

Range eight miles.

- Message, sir.
- Read it out.

"Admiralty to Greyhound.
Welcome.

Kindly make verbal report
to Diamond on TBS."

Diamond, Greyhound. Diamond, Greyhound.
Do you hear me?

Loud and clear, Greyhound.
We hear you had a bit of a rough go of it.

Yes, sir.
In the last 48 hours,

we've lost seven ships from the convoy.
Two others were damaged.

And the condition of your command?
How are you holding up?

I took a round from a sub
on our portside deck. Three were killed.

But you are seaworthy?

Yes, sir. Dicky and I fought him
out on the surface, and we got him.

Uh, my escort group sank three others.

Four U-boats?
Bloody good job, Greyhound.

We will be relieving you now
and taking the convoy on to Liverpool.

You take Dicky and Harry

and make best speed
to the naval yard in Londonderry.

Sir, I request I stay with the convoy.
I have 56 hours fuel at economical speed.

No, that's an order, Commander.
We'll see the convoy on from here.

I need you to take Dicky and Harry
back home.

They're not fit to stay in the game,
understood? Off to Derry with you.

Aye, aye, sir.

Tell me, Greyhound,
just curious,

how many crossings
does that make for you now?

This was my first, sir.

Unbelievable.

Well, let's hope next time's a bit easier,
eh? Admirable show, Commander.

Thank you, sir.

Dicky, Harry. Greyhound.

- Dicky here.
- Harry here.

You are relieved of your screening duties.

Form starboard echelon on me
at the head of the convoy.

We will depart on 087 for Londonderry.

Aye, aye, sir.

Aye, sir.

Messenger.

- Messenger.
- Sir.

Signal Bridge. Send it.
Signal Bridge. Aye, sir.

Commodore is signaling
five minutes to course change, Captain.

Very well.
Take us up the lane.

When we clear the lead ships,
turn right to 087.

- Dodge, James, starboard echelon.
- Aye, aye, sir.

Steady on 087. Starboard echelon.

- Helm, mark your head.
- Mark 083, sir.

Very well.
Keep her so.

Steady as I go.
Aye, sir.

Mister Carling, she's all yours.

I will be in my cabin if you need me.

Aye, aye, sir.

"I thank you,
my heavenly Father,

that you have graciously kept me this day.

Into your hands I commend myself,
my body and soul. Amen."
