Thanks to the coordinated efforts of submarine tracking rooms in London, Washington, and Ottawa, the antisubmarine forces' search-and-destroy missions helped preserve the safety of the seaways...former naval intelligence officer Alan Harris Bath traces the coordination of Anglo-American efforts before and during the war, identifying the political, military, technological, and human factors that aided and sometimes hindered cooperation. He compares the Allies' different and often conflicting styles of intelligence gathering and reveals ways in which interagency and interservice rivalries complicated an already complex process.'

Illustrated with photographs by the author. Parks, the son of noted photographer and writer Gordon Parks, was drafted into the Army after he dropped out of college. This diary is an account of his basic training and his 9 months of activeduty in Vietnam, but it is most of all a picture of a young man growing up, an account of the pervasive racism he encountered, and a book which embodies the futility of the war (Parks cannot understand how the 'kids in black pajamas' continue to fight so long against the US Army.) In his postscript, he talks about attending anti-war demonstrations as a photographer and the mixed feelings he experienced. Unlike many inductees, and especially unlike many black Americans, he believed in what the government was doing in Vietnam, and felt the Army deserved the people's support.
