You are the one making Mount Everest out of a tiny molehill, quite a few people have attested to that in this very thread , and yet you cannot see this.
No, it was Steve who started the argument. My sin, apparently, is for taking Sailor Steve up on that argument and not going away once he has spoken. I posted a molehill, and a mountain was made of it by one member of this board. However, that one member is a fixture here and his opinion is not to be challenged. Apparently, that is a sign of disrespect that riles some of his friends. That is not done. So I will give him the last word.

Nonetheless, I see no reason to question the veracity of the film as it is consistent with what we know was policy. We see in the end of the film a US Navy sailor shooting a man in the water, right next to the sub. In the end, the film is consistent with known historical fact.
