Construction workers in World War II in the Pacific are needed to build military sites, but the work is dangerous and they doubt the ability of the Navy to protect them. After a series of attacks by the Japanese, something new is tried, Construction Battalions (CBs=Seabees). The new CBs have to both build and be ready to fight.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'The Fighting Seabees' is a World War II action/war drama focused on the establishment and bravery of the Construction Battalions (Seabees) in the Pacific theater. There is absolutely no indication that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution have any connection to the Christmas season."
