Proud was ok. I was expecting the movie to give more indepth account of the crew aboard the USS Mason.
Rating:  - They Made Us Proud
I served in the U.S. Navy during the Korea war. I know what shipboard life is like. The men on the Mason had it about as rough as it gets. One of the Navy's smallest ships on the roughest seas.

Rating: - All America Should Be Proud
This is one of the best movies about World War 2 I have seen. It is a film that makes me very Proud to be a part of this great country.

Rating: - A Little Treasure

The film tells the story very well, and is interspersed with actual black and white footage of the original USS Mason crew. The cinematography is exceptional, especially the scenes shot in Derry, Ireland. ... Read More
