During World War II, a Japanese garrison on the island of Babeldaob was composed of over 21,000 Imperial Japanese Army men, led by Lieutenant-General Sadae Inoue, as well as over 8,000 Imperial Japanese Navy under the command of Vice_Admiral Kenmi Itoh. Although Babeldaob was bypassed by Allied forces during the war, this film shows that shipping routes of the Caroline Islands were targeted by submarines. USS Barb (SS-220), a Gato-class submarine, compiled one of the most outstanding records of any sub in the U.S. Navy. During her seven war patrols, Barb is officially credited with sinking 17 enemy vessels totaling 96,628 tons, including the Japanese aircraft carrier Un'yō. In recognition of one outstanding patrol, Barb received the Presidential Unit Citation. On her twelfth and final patrol of the war, she landed a party of carefully selected crew members who blew up a train, the only ground combat operation in the Japanese home islands.
