Vice Admiral Harry G. DeWolf CBE DSO DSC RCN  tells of life as a teenage cadet just after World War I. he was in command of HMCS St. Laurent - early in World War II. He also tells of the events surrounding the loss of HMCS Atahbaskan and of Haida's part in the rescue of some of her crew.
Lieut. Commander Fred H. Sherwood DSC & Bar RCNVR - his
first submarine command was "P556", a very old ex-US Navy submarine he nicknamed 'The Reluctant Dragon' because frequently, she didn't want to dive! Then given command of HMS Spiteful - a brand new boat -  he sailed her out into the Pacific war. Sherwood is the only Canadian who commanded a submarine in ops in W.W.II 
Captain C. Patrick Nixon DSC MID RCN - spent 3 years continuously at sea in HMCS St Laurent and after a brief recess ashore returned to command the destroyer HMCS Chaudiere and later HMCS Crescent. Chaudiere took part in sinking 3 U-boats which he describes in detail.
Vice Admiral John C. (Scruff) O'Brien OC RCN - He vividly reports one morning in December '40 when HMCS Saguenay was torpedoed 300 miles west of Ireland. He recounts life aboard the aircraft carrier HMCS Magnificent and concludes with a tribute to Canada's Naval Aviators.

No.1. Commodore G.C. Edwards - His first sea experience comes defending coastal convoys through the English Channel after which, he starts pilot training in England and later Canada.  Next comes operational training in Swordfish Torpedo Bombers the “Workhorses of the Fleet”, which he describes as being almost a World War I aircraft. Ted would have preferred tohave filled this interview with colourful stories but the interviewer insists on bringing him back to the serious
 aspects of his wartime experiences.  Almost reluctantly, Ted  provides a few  details of some really chilling moments.  However he prefers to keep it light - while not leaving any doubt of the dangers of wartime flying from small  carriers. The video is laced with movie footage of the times and many of Ted’s own photographs.  Filmed at his residence in Ottawa in May 1997 and interviewed by fellow naval aviator Patrick Whitby,

Set 5   No. 4      Rear Admiral Charles J Dillon CD - served aboard the carrier HMS Nabob from commissioning to action in “Operation Goodwood” in the attacks against the German batleship TIRPITZ and her miraculous return from Norway after being torpedoed. Dillon stayed on in the Regular Force after the war and the remaining narrative exposes us to these years ... ending as he and his colleagues become the concluding members of Canada’s last Naval Board. Much of the flavour of this documentary comes from Dillon’s old photos and also from personal movies taken by Admiral H.G. DeWolf. An unexpected find was discovery (in the National Archive) of Admiral Nelson Lay’s colour movies in HMS Nabob  Another added treat is the pre-war movies taken aloft in HMCS Venture under sail and contributed by Captain R. L. Lane
