{{Filmjr |title=Freedom Comes High |embid=FreedomC1944 |embsv=archiveorg  |desc=A fast-paced drama about a young married couple, Steve and Ellen, who are divided by Steve's enlistment in the Navy during World War II.  While entering enemy waters, Steve's ship is struck during battle.  Steve's spirit appears as Ellen reads the last letter he wrote to her:  "I am sure you'll understand that whatever I do for you and the baby is more important right now than anything else in the world.  The value of these things can't be measured ordinary ways, but must be paid for in dollars and cents -- sometimes in lives.  Freedom comes high.  No matter what happens, I shall always be with you."  These words console Ellen as she receives the telegram announcing his death.  Vice Admiral John H. Towers, Commander Air Force Pacific Islands then appears to encourage the buying of war bonds ("You do your share, we'll do ours") to drive the Japanese troops from the sea and the air, so that then they will "be utterly doomed".
