The Silent Service was a documentary styled anthology series about the U.S. Navy's
submarine fleet and their missions during World War II and the Korean War.
Every episode was fact based and the realism of the show was elevated by the
use of actual combat footage from the files of the United States Navy.

The stories, which varied between the South Pacific during World War II, the
Atlantic campaign and the Korean War, were the brainchild of Rear Admiral
Thomas M. Dykers, himself a submariner, who retired from the Navy in 1949
after 22 years of service. Admiral Dykers also did an intro piece for each
episode, narrated the action and filmed a closing segment, usually with a
member of the crew of the submarine that was highlighted on that particular
episode.

He began each episode with this refrain: "Tonight, we bring you another thrilling
episode of Silent Service stories, of warfare under the sea."
