The story

In Act I a Catholic priest, Father Joseph McIntyre (Lund) who is serving in the US Navy is stationed on an aircraft carrier. He is shown around the ship by seasoned Chief Bosun, Buck Fitzpatrick (Bendix). The crew of the ship receives the order to sail and there is widespread dissatisfaction with the short notice given, but Fitzpatrick establishes order through his commanding presence; however, his soft side is shown when he helps one of the younger crew members to keep a small dog that he had brought onto the ship.
