McCants ISBN: 1570870543 ISBN-13: 9781570870545 Format: Hardcover Customer Reviews Review this book! Bibliographic Details Publisher: William R McCants Published date: 1995 Size: 6 x 9 inches Weight: 1.85 pounds Similar books U.S. Submarine Attacks During World War II by John D. Alden 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. 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. . . ." Nothing Friendly In The Vicinity by Claude C. Conner Nothing Friendly in the Vicinity is the remarkable autobiography of an enlisted submariner and his harrowing experiences as a crew member of the submarine USS Guardfish (SS-217) during World War II. Conner's memoir highlights Guardfish's exciting early operations and documents deeply the four war patrols in which he personally participated. The Guardfish's history is marred with a horrendous "friendly-fire" tragedy, when the Guardfish's skipper misidentified and sunk USS Extractor (ARS-15) in a torpedo attack.
