Series Summary
**************
The saga of the Henry family, begun in "The 
Winds of War" continues as America is attacked
by Japan and enters World War II. For Victor 
Henry, an upwardly mobile naval career sets
him in command of a cruiser with sights on
selection for the Admiralty. At the same time,
however, Victor must struggle with a failing 
marriage as well as a love affair with the 
daughter of a prominent British radio news 
reporter. Victor's son Byron has equal success
as a submarine officer, eventually selected to
command his own ship, yet all the while must 
deal with the separation of his wife and son 
who are held in German custody as enemy alien
Jews. Through other such characters as 
Professor Aaron Jastrow, Naval Pilot Warren
Henry, and the noble German General Armin 
von Roon, "War and Remembrance" unfolds into
an all encompassing and fascinating story of
the Second World War.

Episode Summary
***************
In the immediate aftermath of the attack on 
Pearl Harbor, Captain Victor 'Pug' Henry finds
himself in command of a cruiser, the USS 
Northampton. His son Warren is a naval aviator
on the USS Enterprise and son Byron continues 
his service on a submarine, the USS Swordfish.
Pug's wife Rhoda continues her affair with 
Palmer Kirby and Byron's wife Natalie has a
difficult decision to make when a German 
Foreign Office official suggests that she and
her uncle Aaron Jastrow stay in Italy rather 
than travel to Palestine. Pamela Tudsbury and
her father start a world tour where he will 
report for the BBC from the far reaches of the
British Empire. She is quick to let Pug know 
that they will also be stopping in Hawaii.
