I recently watched the 2001 movie Pearl Harbor, and during the scene when the USS Oklahoma capsizes, a sailor or soldier can be heard screaming, "I can't swim!"
Is it true that in the 1940s, some sailors and soldiers serving in the US Navy couldn't swim? This makes me wonder why they decided to work on a ship if they can't swim.
And are there still people serving in the Navy who can't swim?
