I stood a quarterdeck watch when my reserve ship had been moved to downtown Norfolk for the civilians to gawk at. The Elizabeth River was lined with inactive ships from WW2 and Korea. That was 1975.

I don't think folks should be allowed to post on this blog unless they have a copy of the "The Caine Mutiny" at hand. The end of the book, where Keith brings her to Bayonne, New Jersey for decommissioning, will make you cry.
The problem with the movie is that Humphrey Bogart was too good and captured the part despite being too old for the role ThatтАЩs why every remake falls flat.

I haven't read that in years. I've seen the movie a couple times, but the movie doesn't follow the ship to the end.
I prefer the movie ending where Keith defies his mother and marries May.
We don't know if he got the singer in the book; it is ambiguous. You can still think he marries May.
Let us hope the last Captain of the Caine found his true love.
