Hitting all the most expected notes of aggressively patriotic propaganda, the WWII service drama Destination Tokyo was the directorial debut of screenwriter Delmer Daves, who dabbled in several genres over his lengthy career (I'm a big fan of his gloriously soapy melodrama A Summer Place).
During World War II, Captain Cassidy and his crew of submariners are ordered into Tokyo Bay on a secret mission. They are to gather information in advance of the planned bombing of Tokyo. Along the way, the crew learn about each other as they face the enemy and some of them lose their lives.
The U.S.S. Copperfin sails under secret orders for Tokyo Bay in the early days of World War II. The submarine's mission is to enter the bay undetected and place a landing party ashore to obtain information vital to the upcoming Doolittle air raid on Tokyo.
