On learning of the assassination of his godfather, President John F Kennedy, Boston College undergraduate DANIEL KELLY believes Communism is behind the unlawful killing, a backlash from the Cuban missiles crises. Beside himself, Daniel makes a spur-of-the-moment vow, dedicating his life to combating communists, the purveyors of evil. So as to advance his pledge, he joins the Navy and becomes an aviation pilot.
