An Annapolis Story (alternative titles: The Blue and Gold and Navy Air Patrol) is a 1955 American drama film directed by Don Siegel and starring John Derek, Diana Lynn and Kevin McCarthy.

Older brother Jim looks after the more impulsive Tony and helps him pass a difficult test so he can play football in the big Army-Navy game.

During a maneuver at sea involving helicopter and naval jets, Tony's aircraft plummets off the deck in an aborted takeoff and he is knocked unconscious.

Hampered by budgetary constraints and a minor rebellion from star John Derek, who insisted on switching roles with Kevin McCarthy at the last moment, Siegel made compromises, using his former background as an editor for major studios to his advantage.

The boys battle over the affections of Peggy (Diana Lynn), a triangle that seriously strains their fraternal relationship and compromises their effectiveness as officers-to-be and gentlemen.
