Lieutenant Danny Jabo is a young officer onboard the USS Alabama, a Trident submarine. When a mad man tries to stop the ship's vital mission, it's up to Danny and the rest of the heroic crew to stop him.

Danny Jabo returns to sea, this time as second-in-command of a Trident submarine, the USS Maine.
