About

Construction workers in World War II in the Pacific are needed to build military sites, but the work is dangerous and they doubt the ability of the Navy to protect them. After a series of attacks by the Japanese, something new is tried, Construction Battalions (CBs=Seabees). The new CBs have to both build and be ready to fight.

Can a crew of civilian laborers pivot from building runways to defending them under heavy fire? This wartime drama pits construction crews against sudden Japanese raids to see if builders can survive the front lines.
