However, navy divers are able to save Scotty and his heroics make him a hero. Retiring from the navy as a commander, he find that, as a hero, he is in great demand. There are parades. Speeches, endorsements, banquets and autographs galore. Even his marriage to his sweetheart Janet (Mary Brian) is headline news. Everyone wants a piece of Scotty.
