Torpedo Squadron (1942)
Directed by John Ford
this is a short documentary. We see film of the members of Torpedo
Squadron 8 all but one of whom were later killed at the Battle of
Midway.
A sombre memorial for
men who were lost during the war there is not much to this film but
it is still very human and touching. There is little narrative to
this short piece but it is well worth a watch. Certainly propaganda
but on a very personal level.
3/5
