Once the captain (Kirk Douglas) and his mates on the bridge (Martin Sheen, James Farentino, Ron O'Neal, et al.) get the mystery all sorted out, the Nimitz, in its full nuclear glory, finds itself in a position to intervene in history. Should it try to face down the entire Japanese armada steaming toward its rendezvous with infamy...
