  1. I read The Cruel Sea when I was 14 years old and can't see one of those Flower Class Corvettes with the mast in front of the bridge with out thinking about the Compass Rose and all the men IRL who died serving on such vessels. .

  3.  @alpearson9158  The YouTube Search I did had numerous listings for The Cruel Sea - Full Movie But none of them had the full movie ... This original trailer was the best I could find. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joUDAD3GB3g If you watch the movie or read the book ... there is more to these scenes ... some of which is very ... very sad ... The best thing about the trailer - is Jack Hawkins face as he talks about the war. .
