Secret Command is a 1944 Conspiracy Thriller about a pair of US Naval Intelligence operatives, Sam Gallagher and Jill McGann, posing as a family while Sam tries to catch saboteurs at the shipyards where his brother, Jeff, works.

Sam interacts with multiple workers at the shipyard. Initially, the head of the shipyard seems to be in charge, but turns out to be subordinate to a Gestapo operative posing as one of the workers.

Examples:

  • Agents Dating: Sam and Jill initially pose as a married couple. Once their mission is completed, they decide to start a real relationship.
  • Bleed 'Em and Weep: Jill becomes upset after killing Simms with a fire poker.
  • Make It Look Like an Accident: Brownie, in actuality Colonel von Braun, intends to make the bombing of the shipyard look like an accident.
  • The Mole: Miller has infiltrated the Nazi spies, and acts as an informant to Sam.
  • Tsundere: Jill is initially a little prickly to Sam, but warms up to him.
