This is life below decks-as far below decks as one can go in a corvette. During the height of WWII, Ike walks into HMCS Chippawa (Winnipeg) to enlist in the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve. He joins up with romantic notions of rising through the ranks and seeing the world-while rising to heroic heights fighting Canada's enemies, and impressing his girl back home. Ike's dreams are soon replaced by the soggy realities of ever-imminent danger. Serving in the bowels of a corvette, tasked with maintaining critical Allied supply lines in the submarine infested North Atlantic, the threat of torpedoes is constant. While Ike's ship navigates the Battle of the Atlantic, Ike himself has to navigate the treacherous currents of life aboard ship. Going ashore at ports of call, he tries to remain true to the promises he made to the girl he left behind. His adventures teach him that endurance is the better part of valor, and survival is his only reward.
