Frogmen aboard a United States submarine in the Sea of Japan are ordered to scuttle two sunken American mine sweeping ships called The Pirate and The Pledge before the Red Chinese can salvage them for their top secret electronics. Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed. For almost two decades, we've worked to collect, scan and preserve the world as it was captured on 35mm, 16mm and 8mm movies -- including home movies, industrial films, and other non-fiction. This film is part of the Periscope Film LLC archive, one of the largest historic military, transportation, and aviation stock footage collections in the USA. Entirely film backed, this material is available for licensing in 24p HD, 2k and 4k.
