Description:
The WWII drama *The Deep Six* examines the struggle between duty and conscience. Alan Ladd plays Alec Austin, a Quaker naval gunnery officer whose pacifist beliefs clash with his crew. After he hesitates to fire at a plane, which later proves to be friendly, Austin's reliability is questioned. To regain his command, he volunteers for a perilous mission: rescuing American pilots held by the Japanese on a remote island. William Bendix appears as Frenchy Shapiro, Austin's critical Jewish petty officer. The film's antagonist is Keenan Wynn as Lt. Commander Edge, an ambitious officer who looks down on anyone who isn't of a certain social class.
