This particular film opens with “Ashcans for Adolph,” a newsreel by Canadian Paramount News and with voice over by Winston Barron. This segment offers insight into wartime mobilization and artillery production on the home front with both men and women coming together to produce depth charges or “ashcans” as they were called by U.S. Navy servicemen. The film includes two other segments by Canadian Paramount News discussing Canadian R-5727 Lancaster Bombers as well as Russia on the Eastern Front. Amidst these clips is a segment of one of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s wartime fireside chats addressing the American people. Lastly, the film also includes a segment from Paramount News with voice over by Vincent Connolly on Winston Churchill’s 69th birthday celebration in Tehran, Iran. Opening credits (0:15).

It is intended to destroy a submarine by being dropped into the water nearby and detonating. Depth charges were used heavily in world war II to, as the film says, “beat the U-boat menace” Germany. During wartime, depth charges were referred to as “ashcans” because of their cylindrical shape.
