Starlet toasts the Merchant Navy at CBC Radio’s Merchant Navy Show (WWII)
Nothing gets a bunch of sailors more fired up than a pretty movie star.
British actress Anna Neagle is in Montreal to appear on CBC Radio's Merchant Navy Show, and she's warmly received by the 1,200 men who pack Montreal's Sailor's Institute.
To their delight, she comes ready with a poem about the bravery of the merchant mariners who daily defy German U-boats on the Atlantic.
