Summary
Born In 1931 to sharecropper parents, Carl Brashear decides to join the Navy. After watching the heroics of Billy Sunday, the White son of a sharecropper, Carl determines to become the Navy's first African-American diver. At the Bayonne, N.J., divers' training camp, Sunday is his instructor, and Brashear must endure hazing that verges on murderous. With Sunday and the camp's commander dead set against Brashear's graduating, he will have to use his physical prowess and steely determination to see him through. Carl and Billy's paths cross again when each needs rehabilitation - one from an injury, the other from bitterness
