Rear Admiral Harry Fenton has done it again. He's traveled through time. He finds himself, with a serious head injury from a fall, at Pearl Harbor Base Hospital on May 16, 1942, three weeks before the Battle of Midway. His wife and aide, Lieutenant Meg Fenton, is frantic, and waits for him-in 2018. Admiral Harry is the commanding officer of Carrier Strike Group 14 in 2018, but the people in 1942 think he's a busted up, hallucinating sailor who imagines himself an admiral.Admiral Raymond Spruance is commanding officer of Carrier Task Force 16. After hearing about Harry's wild claims, Spruance orders him brought to his flagship, the USS Enterprise. After Harry tells him about time travel, Spruance is convinced the man is insane. But after speaking to him at length, Spruance is amazed at Harry's knowledge of naval tactics and strategy. He calls Harry's bluff and orders him to stay aboard the Enterprise for her upcoming engagement at the Battle of Midway.By the end of the battle, Spruance thinks of Harry Fenton as a friend, and even calls him "admiral."Now Harry needs to figure out how to travel back to 2018, to his carrier command, but most importantly, to the love of his life, Lieutenant Meg.
