Cute classic for that era. Filmed aboard the USS Arizona while she was
anchored off San Pedro. The cast performed their sweet, yet sometimes
corny but loveable best, and if you enjoy that type of silliness,
you’ll enjoy this one. My father was selected from the ship’s crew as
an extra and said it was a wonderful Saturday matinee to take your girl
to in those days. After the attacks of 1941, the cast flew out to Pearl
to pay their respects to the Arizona and her crews.
