I had a Uncle who went down with the Harder.

'dammit; jim; I'm a doctor, not a submarine comman....... wait.....'

This episode featured former WWII and Korean War Army vet film and TV character actor Gregory Walcott (Battle Cry, Mr. Roberts, Midway). Also featured was Joe Flynn (McHale's Navy).

Dealy and Morton were both very successful, but their over aggressiveness most likely got they and their crews killed. They would have been even more valuable to the war effort had they returned alive. R.I.P.

The actor who played the captain was far too arrogant in demeanor. A great episode otherwise.

I just love these sub videos......

Great series. The mock up bomber cockpit was really bad though.

Actually the first American shots fired in WW2 was on a Japanese midget submarine in Hawaii on 7th December 1941👍🇦🇺

This episode is chock full of legendary film and TV actors: Craig Stevens (Peter Gunn); Jim Davis (Dallas), Claude Akins (BJ and the Bear, Sheriff Lobo), Anthony Caruso (The High Chaparral), John Mitchum (Younger brother of Robert Mitchum - was in the first three "Dirty Harry " films)

Keety keety.....

Been watching off and on as well as having read many sub books....glad they found her...pictures show one close hit on the middle port side..never knew what hit em

The Harder has finally been found but 10 times Deeper than thought, over3,700 Feet and Sunk the way they thought, a Depth Charge landed on Her Back not far behind the Conn,

The guest never blinks. It looks like they had AI in 1958.

It's easy to see why the XO officer's hair is snow white: STRESS.

I have wondered why the sub captains rarely took a first shot at the destroyer, say torpedo at low speed, then calculate a shot at the freighter with torpedo at high speed so the torpedoes would hit at roughly the same time. Or maybe they did later in the war? Some sub captains, particularly Gerrman sub captains, did line up and fire at multiple targets before the first torpedoes hit.

Let me guess? Don't dive past 8°!

Sorry guys, you ain't getting nun!

Two notable actors Burt Metcalf (Writer and Producer for TV's MASH) and Richard Bakalyan (Up Periscope, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, et al.)

Incredible Harder was found relatively intact. If it was every found, I would have expected it to be in pieces much less recognizable as a Gato class boat. I wonder if that depth charge got captured by the cigarette deck hand railing from the destroyer countetattack. I think the IJN was rolling off 600lb depth charges by that time. "Hit em Harder" was the first submarine warfare book I read in the 6th or 7th grade. RIP to all on the 257 boat.

Morton's way was right, his will was strong, but he ended up as dead as if he had been wrong.

These actual submarine films are national treasures.

Was fortunate to tour the Pampanito in the San Francisco Wharf. Did not get a claustrophobic feeling.

Jeff was played by Richard Crenna.

Good thing there are subtitles, I heard "Fatfish" when the Admiral mentioned the name. Damn the guns, I'm as deaf as a post now.

I never understood why they don't try to torpedo those ships in situations like that???

Two captains named Dave look like identical twins!

Turned shell from rescue operation into an ashtray. .good grief!

I agree, Jack Lord gives one of the best performances as a Silent Service skipper. I thought it was Amatsukaze and Hatsukaze that sunk Perch but I may have gotten that from Hara's book and I think he gives himself to much credit for everything that happened while he commanded Amatsukaze.

God bless those men❤

Clinton Indiana just north of terre haute Indiana my first Sargent didn't 2 tours in Nam was from Clinton

Station on yokosuka navy base jap. Don't trust the Japanese

I had a problem with the chief's conduct in this episode, although it probably was written in for drama. His conduct bordered on insubordination during the rags episode and his continued vocal conduct was prejudicial to conduct unbecoming with his continued vocal behavior. I wasn't in the Navy, I was a senior Army NCO and had plenty of experience in training young officers - respectfully, as long as their orders did not violate safety or were prejudicial to the service. Often, a simple explanation was all that was needed, though sometimes it was me who needed to realize that the officer's idea was a better one.

God bless the men who defended our cy❤

In San Francisco I toured the sub Pampanito

2:00 “William W. William.” 🙋‍♂️Would his middle name being William by any chance?

Navy Log is another tv show of this era.

i was taken once again back to my 4th-5th-6th grade years , checking out books in the school library, reading about the Darter and Dace, the recently found Harder , and yes the Archerfish and their skippers who were all childhood heroes to me, my plan back then was to be in the Navy, to be a Submariner, and do all the things that these great crews did, as i got older, i got interested in helicopters and ended up switching my plans to work on attack helicopters instead, i fell into some pretty good company along the way and managed to do pretty well in my time served. never forgot those subs though, the scene where Lockwood's message of "your picture is on the piano" brought it all back.

Cromwell a man in England who stopped a king from total rule over the people. Thomas Cromwell a great name in English history.
