A combat picture was virtually a license to print money in 1942, and RKO Radio's The Navy Comes Through was no exception. Most of the film takes place on the ramshackle old merchant-marine freighter, skippered by Captain McCall (Ray Collins). The captain and his stalwart crew-the most stalwart of which are Mallory (Pat O'Brien), Sands (George Murphy), Babe (Jackie Cooper), Tarriba (Desi Arnaz) and Berringer (Max Baer Sr.)-keep busy by blowing German bombers and U-boats to smithereens. The crewmen cap their accomplishments by capturing a German supply ship and using it against its own navy.
