    25 Best U.S. Navy Movies

    The latest issue of the U.S. Naval Institute's magazine PROCEEDINGS has an article about the 25 best U.S. Navy movies. The list is in chronological order of the movies release date. Here are the eight sub films that made the list]BEDFORD[/i] INCIDENT
    THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER
    CRIMSON TIDE

    Six of the 28 "honorable mention" films were also sub (or sub related) movies.
    CRASH DIVE
    OPERATION PACIFIC
    HELLCATS OF THE NAVY
    UP PERISCOPE
    ICE STATION ZEBRA
    GRAY LADY DOWN

    U-571 was on the list of films to avoid.

    Best Navy Movies

    In my humble opinion, as an old "diesel boat" sailor, "Down Periscope", with Kelsey Grammer, should have made that list. It accurately showed the Diesel Boats, during the Cold War. And showed the differences, and competition, between them, and the nukes.

      Kudos to "Proceedings" for kicking

      Kudos to "Proceedings" for kicking out a brainless movie like U-571, even though it is pro-US. *claps*
