"In Harm's Way "- Part 1 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Liz

Barbara Bouchet played the drunken and promiscuous Liz Eddington. Born during World War II in Reichenberg, Sudentenland, Germany, Bouchet recently appeared as Mrs. Schermerhorn in 2002's "Gangs of New York".

Answer: Ship's officer commanding

Tom Tryon portrayed the young naval officer. He went on to become a bestselling novelist with the publication of "The Other" in 1972.

Answer: Bacon and eggs

Torrey is a seasoned Naval Academy graduate who is second-generation Navy. At the time of his death, in 1979, Wayne held the record for actors in a leading role at 142. In 1971 he turned down the title role in "Dirty Harry", which went to Clint Eastwood.

Answer: Kirk Douglas

Paul's philandering wife Liz is the main reason for his heavy drinking. Douglas has starred in over 80 films, but turned down two movie parts that won Best Actor Academy Awards. He was offered William Holden's part in 1953's "Stalag 17" and Lee Marvin's role in 1965's "Cat Ballou".

Answer: Slim Pickens

Mac asked the enlisted crewman to "crawl back into a uniform". Pickens was born Louis Bert Lindley, Jr. in 1919, and was a real live cowboy before taking up acting. He is perhaps best remembered as Major "King" Kong, the U.S. Air Force pilot who waved his cowboy hat as he rode a nuclear bomb dropped on the U.S.S.R. in the classic 1964 film "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb".

Answer: Hugh O'Brian

Liz and the pilot perish in a car wreck as they speed back to town. Although he has appeared in dozens of film roles, O'Brian seem to be forever attached to his television series "The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp", which ran from 1955 to 1961.

Answer: Larry Hagman

The young communications officer did not seem terribly concerned with the radio traffic. The same year that he played Navy Lt. Cline, Hagman became Tony Nelson in a six year run on television's "I Dream of Jeannie". It was another 13 years before we met J.R. Ewing on "Dallas".

Answer: Kimmel

Tone, a suave leading man of the 1930s, portrayed the unfortunate Navy Admiral Husband Kimmel. Ten days after the Pearl Harbor attack, Kimmel was removed from command and replaced by Admiral Chester Nimitz. Later investigations into the attack found Kimmel guilty of errors of judgement and of not properly coordinating army-navy efforts to defend Hawaii.

He took early retirement in May, 1942.

Answer: Prepare to repel an invasion

Broderick's suggestion was overruled by CinCPac and a Seek Out and Engage the enemy order was issued. The inept admiral continued to be a thorn in the side of both his superiors and subordinates. Dana Andrews was a Hollywood leading man during the 1940s and 1950s. He was president of the Screen Actors Guild from 1963 to 1965.

Answer: Carroll O'Connor

Commander Burke went on to command the same heavy cruiser on which he served under Torrey. O'Connor, who became the legendary Archie Bunker, was not producer Norman Lear's first choice for the starring role in television's "All in the Family". If Mickey Rooney had not refused the role, O'Connor may have faded into obscurity, instead of spending a dozen years on a top rated TV series.
