| Summary | "March Anson and Scoot Bailey of the U.S. Navy" by Marshall McClintock is a fictional narrative written in the mid-20th century. The story revolves around two young men, March Anson and Scoot Bailey, who are navigating their military careers in the U.S. Navy during World War II. As they transition from life on a cruiser to embarking on new adventures, the story delves into their aspirations, friendships, and contrasting views on naval warfare, particularly as March pursues a career in submarines. At the start of the narrative, the two friends reflect on their departure from the cruiser "Plymouth", expressing both nostalgia and anxiety about their new assignments. March is excited about the potential adventures below the surface, while Scoot dreams of flying planes. Their backgrounds are revealed: March, a more serious and studious type, has ambitions of serving on submarines, while Scoot, more boisterous and thrill-seeking, aims to be an aviator. As they look ahead to their respective futures, the opening chapter sets the stage for their character development and the challenges they will face as young officers in a rapidly changing wartime environment.
