In the wake of a ship board fire where Petty Officer Alex Sievers
is severely injured and a shipmate is killed, he arrives in Great
Lakes Illinois to take command of a misfit company of recruits
competing for the Double Salute. A highly esteemed naval tradition
is restored to a modern day Navy in an effort to regard the past as
a path to the future. Using the wooden ships of old as a tool
during recruit training, a steel will is forged in the fire of
adversity into seagoing warriors of the present. Sievers recognizes
the restoration of the Double Salute as an opportunity to pursue
his lifelong dream of becoming a commissioned officer. To realize
his dream, he must find inner healing to overcome his fear and
guilt that threatens to consume him from within. He must also
resist the advances of an ex-girlfriend that longs to rekindle an
old flame and snuff out his current relationship with his wife,
Cathreen. Sievers must find a way to overcome another commander, he
once called friend, who has stacked his company with the strongest
and brightest of incoming recruits in an effort to destroy him. A
thrill packed ride of tradition, honor and patriotism, Double
Salute culminates with the mass conflagration where only the strong
survive.
