I think one of Wayne's best war films was "The Long Voyage Home" about the merchant marine at the start of WW II.

Never saw "The Long Voyage Home," but the description brought to mind another Wayne movie, "The Sea Chase" (1955) in which he plays a German captain of a freighter at the start of WW II fleeing the British navy while trying to return to Germany.

Yes, The Long Voyage Home. Great movie, sad as can be. The merchant seamen in the Battle of the Atlantic had it horribly rough.
