Binghamton is convinced that McHale and the 73 Crew are consorting with the enemy, and, when he can't get anyone to believe him, he calls for a Naval Intelligence team, to search McHale's island for evidence. So, to get him to call off the search, McHale and The Guys devise an elaborate scheme, to make Binghamton think he's losing his mind.
I was just a young boy when this series came out & I remember only parts of the series. I am looking forward to watching each episode after I upload them with you. These are the adventures of the misfit crew of PT-73 during World War II. They're one of the best fighting crews in the Navy, but break regulations when it suits them. Their commander, Lieutenant Commander Quinton McHale (Ernest Borgnine), is at times as roguish as his crew, but he puts his foot down when things go too far. They are assigned Executive Officer Ensign Charles Parker (Tim Conway), who is by the book, but too much of a klutz to command too much respect. They have a house boy, Fuji Kobiaji (Yoshio Yoda), who deserted the Japanese Navy and wears a P.O.W. outfit just in case he's caught, so he won't be shot at. Their nemesis is Captain Wallace B. Binghamton (Joe Flynn) and his aide Lieutenant Elroy Carpenter (Bob Hastings). They're initially stationed in the South Pacific, but moved to Italy in the last season.
Stars: Ernest Borgnine, Joe Flynn, Tim Conway, Carl Ballantine, Gary Vinson, Billy Sands, Edson Stroll, John Wright, Yoshio Yoda, Bob Hastings, Gavin MacLeod, Roy Roberts & other fine actors.

Trivia
The crew's duties were: George "Christy" Christopher (Gary Vinson) - Quartermaster; Harrison "Tinker" Bell (Billy Sands) - Motor Machinist's Mate; Lester Gruber (Carl Ballantine) and Joseph "Happy" Haynes (Gavin MacLeod) -Torpedoman's Mate; Willy Moss (John Wright) - Radioman; Virgil Edwards (Edson Stroll) - Gunner's Mate
During an interview, Ernest Borgnine related that when he was initially approached by his agent with an offer to star in the pilot for the show, he turned it down (it was actually to be a drama, called "Seven Against the Sea", which was retooled into a comedy when the series was picked up by ABC.) Not long thereafter a boy showed up on Borgnine's doorstep selling candy. He told Borgnine that he looked familiar, but that he couldn't place him. Borgnine, who had already won an Oscar for his role in Marty (1955), asked the boy if he knew who played the lead character Paladin in the television series Have Gun - Will Travel (1957). The boy said, "Richard Boone." He likewise was immediately able to remember the names of several other television series stars, even though he couldn't remember who Borgnine was. After the boy left, Borgnine called his agent to ask if that Navy pilot was still available. When told that it was, Borgnine told him to accept--and so became a part of what eventually would be his signature television series.
During the first season, Ernest Borgnine was the only one of the cast who appeared in the opening credits. From the second season on, Tim Conway and Joe Flynn also appeared.
