Description
At the height of the Second World War, a young Navy Lieutenant stood at the helm of a U.S. patrol boat and in one ill-starred night made his mark in the annals of history. That young man later became on of the most popular Presidents of the US - John Fitzgerald Kennedy. National Geographic reveals the true story behind the legend - a more complex, more intriguing tale than we were ever led to believe. Famed ocean explorer Dr. Robert Ballard will travel to the Solomon Islands to find the sunken wreck of Kennedy's boat, the PT-109. Through eyewitness accounts of survivors, local islanders and other PT crews on patrol that night, along with powerful footage from the war in the Pacific, we retell the remarkable story of JFK's heroic struggle to rally his crew and get them safely to shore and explore the controversies that have swirled around the boat's sinking.

    3 out of 5 stars PT-109 with Cliff Robertson is still better..........2006-10-03

    First it's President Kennedy, you jerks.
    Secondly, even though it is a facinating
    N.G. video (Whoops, DVD...), WHY BOTHER
    us now when we are fighting the New World
    Order, tooth and nail. Maybe in the future
    we can induldge ourselves in these type
    of shows. Like most all of N.G., it is well
    made but National Geographic is a Rockefel-
    ler pro-Evolution magazine and show that
    the ILLUMINIST Jacques (Population Control)
    Cousteau helped popularized with his Grand
    Orient Masonic dialogs. Not bad, but better
    out there on JFK...
