A vivid portrayal of the officers and sailors of the fictional amphibious transport USS Belinda in the Pacific of World War II - Based on the 1953 novel also titled "Away All Boats" by Kenneth M. Dodson. Dodson served on the USS Pierce (APA-50) in World War II and used his experiences there as a guide for his novel.

Jebediah S. Hawks (Jeff Chandler) is in charge of USS Belinda, an attack transport readying itself to take the war to the Japanese in the Pacific. Hawks whips his crew into shape, intentionally becoming a martinet to ensure the frustrations of his rookie crew center on him, forging them into a concentrated unit.

Also featuring a young Clint Eastwood as "Corpsman." His role is a brief speaking one (with one line of dialog spoken by another actor), as a Navy medical corpsman assisting the ship's captain after he is severely wounded while trying to save his ship.

Originally released on August 16, 1956.
