In 1944, the United States faced an impossible logistical challenge — how to keep thousands of ships, tanks, and aircraft fueled across an ocean 7,000 miles wide. The answer was one of the most ambitious engineering projects of the Second World War: a secret undersea fuel pipeline network that stretched across the Pacific. Known to few outside wartime archives, it connected island bases from Ulithi to Okinawa, delivering millions of gallons of aviation fuel directly beneath the ocean.
This documentary reveals how the U.S. Navy’s Seabees, engineers, and oil companies combined industrial innovation and military logistics to build the fuel lines that powered the final assault on Japan. Using declassified reports, production data, and archival footage, it uncovers the hidden infrastructure that made victory possible — and shows how pipelines, not just planes and bombs, helped end the Pacific War.
