A hilarious comedy of mistaken identity aboard a Naval destroyer. When Tom, a Parliamentary Secretary, puts on the Commanders uniform, he is forced to carry on a charade of authority. Being completely ignorant of the navy or ships, he embarks on a series of merry mix-ups climaxed by the launching of a torpedo at a visiting Sea Lord.
