Overview

This is an exciting story. It has all the makings of a drama. The core of the story is defying the ship captain's orders especially since he wasn't suited or qualified for command, and was disconnected from the crew. The story takes us on a journey from Rhode Island to Vietnam while confronting sabotage, NCIS, typhoons and mutiny, all intertwined with bits of humor.
