    This was a good movie. Interesting path to Harry's past and the relationship that he had with one of his fellow Navy buds. Being terrified of being found out Harry made a very bad mistake and got his love interest badly hurt. David, the Navy love interest, now a very wealthy and successful man still had feelings for Harry but a renewed relationship would not work as Harry was still terribly closited. Good movie.......
