A Time When Ordinary Men Become Extraordinary Heroes
At the height of Hitler's notorious U-boat war, the crew of the U.S. S. Swordfish is taken prisoner in a battle with a German sub. However, meningitis strikes more than half of the German crew, and there aren't enough Germans to run the sub. Avoiding both the contagion-and POW protocol-crew members and prisoners alike must work together to survive. But it isn't until a U.S. carrier locates the ship that the men aboard the U-boat are put to the ultimate test of will and survival.
