A documentary about Rear Admiral Frederick Burdett Warder tells the story of a remarkable individual from humble beginnings in Grafton, West Virginia. Dubbed "Fearless Freddie" by his crew, Warder commanded the USS Seawolf, stationed in Manila, Philippines, at the outbreak of World War II with Japan. Despite being dubbed "fearless," he was just as scared as anyone else during the intense battles in the Pacific. However, he remained a humane warrior, treating his enemies with respect and compassion, often tossing whiskey and life jackets to the survivors of his submarine attacks.
