Hello all:
Has anyone seen this old WWII movie starring James Cagney and his OSS gang?
A scene at the beginning takes the viewer to a U.S. naval depot where MK 14
torpedoes are being worked. Two "OSS trainees" photograph a MK 6 magnetic-influence exploder mechanism on a work table and next to it is a MK 14 3A torpedo turned bottom-side up showing its exploder cavity in the warhead. It's the first time I've ever seen a MK 6 exploder mechanism in a regular "civilian" movie.
