Kate Beckinsale, looking beautiful and straight out of a 1940's glamour magazine, is Evelyn, the nurse who wins the hearts of both Rafe and Danny. Rafe meets her first during an examination to determine fitness for duty. He charms and clowns his way into a date, and the two fall quickly in love. Rafe leaves Evelyn and Danny behind when he volunteers for a tour of duty with the British Royal Air Force. As a member of the highly respected "Eagle Squadron," Rafe battles the Nazis while America remains uninvolved in combat. Word reaches Danny in Pearl Harbor that Rafe has been shot down and is presumed dead. Danny and Evelyn eventually turn to each other for comfort, and wind up in each other's arms.
