This Ministry of Information documentary was made to be "a comprehensive picture of life on board for the 1500strong complement" of the battleship HMS King George V.
Released in October 1942, it takes viewers on a tour of the warship's various departments including the engine room, administration, post office, command bridge and specialist workshops. It shows the workings of a 14in turret and the ship's Walrus amphibian aircraft and catapult. Daily life includes issuing of the rum ration, the mess and wardroom, recreational activities, and the slinging of hammocks.
