General MacArthur doesn't know it, but he's headed for an ambush.

Hugh O'Brian, Mickey Rooney and James Mitchum star in this well-made WWII nail-biter that'll keep you on the edge of your seat with consistent excitement right until the explosive ending.

A marine patrol secretly lands on the Japanese-occupied island of Siarago. Their mission: to locate a Japanese-American girl with vital information concerning General MacArthur's pending Philippine invasion. What they uncover instead is a Japanese plot to detonate underwater mines as the US fleet enters the bay. Cut off from outside communication, these brave marines must find a way to prevent what could be the worst naval tragedy from ever happening.
