Description: Retired Navy Chief Bosun's Mate Steve "Boley" Boleslavski helps build the destroyer John Paul Jones, the namesake of the ship he served on in World War I, sunk a quarter century later while saving an aircraft carrier from being torpedoed. Boley soon alienates the rest of the destroyer's crew with his perfectionist attitude. He is demoted for striking Mickey Donohue when the latter goads him by insulting the Jones.
