Samenvatting
Verbitterd door de dood van zijn moeder, besluit de eenling Zack Mayo een officiersopleiding te volgen op de marinebasis van Port Rainier. Tijdens de bikkelharde opleiding sluit hij vriendschap met Sid Worley, een jongen die in het leger zit om de familietraditie in ere te houden. Ze maken er kennis met Paula en Lynette, twee fabrieksarbeidsters die hopen een officier aan de haak te kunnen slaan om zo te kunnen ontsnappen aan de dagelijkse sleur.Credits
