"Dick Keresey's description of events that produce effective PT officers in war is excellent and interesting. His accurate description of the PT boat itself and its actions in combat is something that has been lacking in previous books on the subject." -- John D. Bulkeley

Silent Running
by James F. Calvert
"The boat was eerily quiet and hot as an oven. Shirts came off and men were either in skivvy shirts or bare from the waist up. Every body glistened with sweat—some from the heat and some from just raw fear. Click . . . BANG! Click . . . BANG! Two more [depth charges], still very close. A couple of lightbulbs shattered. . . ."
Pacific War Diary, 1942-1945
by James J. Fahey
Through the long naval campaign in the Pacific, an ordinary seaman defied regulations by surreptitiously compiling a diary on scraps of paper, writing it in secret when no one was looking. What Fahey recorded is a view of the war not found in history books--a vivid picture of an average sailor's daily life from the first taste of battle to the final desperate attacks by kamikaze pilots and Japanese suicide ships.
Unrestricted Warfare
by James F. Derose
Unrestricted Warfare reveals the dramatic story of the harsh baptism by fire faced by U.S. submarine commanders in World War II. The first skippers went to battle hamstrung by conservative peacetime training and plagued by defective torpedoes. Drawing extensively from now declassified files, Japanese archives, and the testimony of surviving veterans, James DeRose has written a fascinating account of the men and vessels responsible for the only successful submarine campaign of the war. They clearly charted a new course to victory in the Pacific.
Rendezvous With Destiny
by Theodore C. Mason
The book is filled with tales that deserve to be told for the rare insights they offer into the views, reactions, opinions, and philosophies of the World War II sailor. Regardless of whether they agree with the author, readers will find his memoir hard to put down. It evokes both a time and a war that are quickly evolving from experience into history, and it will appeal not only to veterans and their families but also to others who want to know what the war was like for enlisted men.
