Embark on a search for the truth about one of the most legendary war stories of the 20th century! Set sail with Dr. Robert Ballard, discoverer of the Titanic, as he attempts to locate John F. Kennedy's sunken torpedo boat, PT 109.
At the height of the Second World War, a young Navy Lieutenant stood at the helm of a U.S. patrol boat and in one ill-starred night made his mark in the annals of history. That young man later became on of the most popular Presidents of the US - John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
It's about 2 a.m., August 2, 1943. Lt. John F. Kennedy squints into the fog and black while at the wheel of PT 109, idling in the Blackett Strait off Gizo in the Solomon Islands. His orders are to attack the 'Tokyo Express' resupplying Japanese installations…. He and his young crew are ready, but handicapped by darkness and fog…. Suddenly, only 300 yards away, a black shape looms…traveling without lights and at high speed. Only seconds before impact…the ship is identified as a Japanese destroyer, the Amagiri. The much larger craft slices through the hull of PT 109, cutting the 80-foot wooden-hulled boat in two. Several of the crew are injured, one critically. The crew takes refuge on the larger section that remains afloat until dawn. Then all are into the water, and Lt. Kennedy begins the series of epic swims that will save his crew and earn him a place in history.
Forty years after his death and 60 years after his first collision with history in the South Pacific, John F. Kennedy and his story still inspire viewers. Through re-creations, archival footage, eye-witness accounts, and memories of Kennedy family members, you'll relive Kennedy's heroic efforts to save his crew after their collision with a Japanese destroyer. And, amid the suspense of Ballard's voyage, you'll discover how the harrowing adventure of a young Navy lieutenant helped transform JFK into the future leader of his country, as National Geographic begins THE SEARCH FOR KENNEDY'S PT 109.
