A strik- ing demonstration of the device wins O'Brien the support of his Chiefs, and leads to the establish- mnt of a school where young bombardiers can be trained to op- erate the instrument. O'Brien is put in charge of the school and Scott, an old-time friend and rival, is sent there also to fly training planes for the students The complicated but highly inter- esting details of a bombardier’s life and how he is taught his duties, are vividly shown in the course of the film. Then comes Pearl Har- bor, and O'Brien has a trained body of experts to man the bomb sights of the Liberators and Fortresses. A large-scale bombing raid over Jap war plants near Tokio forms the stirring climax of the picture, with O'Brien in command of the big planes and Scott, on a special mission connected with the raid | heroically giving his life so that the| raid will be a success. Anne Shirley heads the featured cast, bracketed with Eddie Albert. Other players are Barton MacLane, Robert Ryan, Russell Wade, Walter Reed, Richard Martin and other| talented players in the cast.

The picture combines the mystery of the mine itself with the desperate efforts made by the Nazi forces to keep it from being turned into a useful property for the war effort. Played against the background of war-torn England, the picture makes use of the well-known lone- liness of the Cornwall moor, the superstitions that surround the mine itself and the suspect quality of Leland Hall, the castle that ad- joins the mining property. Featured in the cast are John Loder, handsome English actor, Eleanor Parker, Bruce Lester and Lester Matthews.
