SynopsisThis book contains a story of a man's life, starting in his childhood years in the 1920s and the struggle that accompanied him and his family through the Depression, and later on through World War II. It recounts the dangerous but exciting profession that he chose to be a part of as a submarine sailor during the war and then the transition to a peacetime Navy. He served as a crewmember on the submarine Finback that had a wartime record excelled only by a few. The book tells of the rescue of aviators that were shot down by the Japanese, one of whom would later become a President of the United States. The book contains de-classified information, including the complete unabridged patrol report of the submarine Finback on its 10th war patrol in September of 1944.
