Synopsis "Mayaguez and the Murder Ship: Two Tales of Maritime Heroism"
"Mayaguez and the Murder Ship" trace the marine exploits of First Mate, later Captain, Casey Flynn. Aboard the container ship Mayaguez, he was First Mate during the surprise capture of that vessel and crew by Cambodian communists in 1975. During the four days between their capture and release to the U.S. Navy, Flynn acted as calm intermediary with his crew's communist captors. The Americans were fearful of being summarily shot, ransomed or tried before a Cambodian court, then imprisoned. Once U.S. aircraft appeared overhead firing and bombing, their captors became hysterical and unpredictable, making Flynn's protection of his crew even more difficult. Promoted to captain for his performance on the Mayaguez, Flynn's trials had just begun. His first command, an old oil tanker, was beset with problems: a dispirited crew, several of whom mysteriously and regularly disappeared. The anxious, short-handed, double-dutied crew labeled their vessel the "Murder Ship." To help him solve the mysterious disappearances or murders, an inexperienced Security Officer (who happened to be the transport lines owner's beautiful daughter) was added to assist Flynn in this his new command. What could possible go wrong on Casey's maiden voyage of the "Murder Ship"?
