Final chapter on the possible future of the victorious submarine force and nuclear power is good. ( ) If you want a good overview and detail of what each boat was doing in the timeframe of the war, this is it. I am glad I read this one before I read USS Seawolf: Raider of the Pacific. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33548443-u-s-s-seawolf It is as complete and as dry as a "Reporting, Admiral!" yet glad I read it. I never knew about the total intertwining of the boats, the torpedo problems, and the tactics development. Required reading for any WWII Submarine buff. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Sink 'Em All, was originally published in 1951 by Vice Admiral Charles A. Lockwood, the U.S. Navy commander of the Pacific submarine fleet during World War II. Lockwood, in his leadership role, knew the skippers and crews of the submarines, and retells their wartime successes and tragedies with an intimacy and realism often missing in second-hand accounts. Lockwood also recounts his efforts to improve the provisions and after-patrol accommodations of the submariners, and of his on-going struggle to improve the effectiveness of torpedoes and other tools vital to the war effort.
