In November 1943, in the middle of World War II, the battleship USS Iowa carried President Franklin D. Roosevelt across the Atlantic to a top‑secret summit with Stalin. Escorting her was a brand‑new destroyer, USS William D. Porter—a ship whose short career would become legend for all the wrong reasons.
What began as a routine voyage turned surreal: a dropped depth charge, a near‑miss gunnery accident, and then the unthinkable—a live torpedo accidentally fired straight at the President’s ship. As the white wake cut toward Iowa, officers froze, radio silence shattered, and the Secret Service braced for what looked like an inside job.
This episode unpacks the minute‑by‑minute chaos, the investigation that followed, and the chilling “what if” of a self‑inflicted disaster that could have rewritten the story of World War II.
