Pages : 420
Book Description
The U.S. merchant marine played a critical, though often overlooked, role in World War II. This reference work provides a brief narrative of each of the recorded attacks on American-flagged merchant ships, as well as an accounting of the men and the ships, which were a part of this worldwide conflict. In addition to the wealth of data on the ships, their crews and cargoes, it depicts the exciting and often violent story of the hundreds of enemy attacks on convoys and lone merchant vessels. Evident within the narrative is the gallantry and sacrifice of naval gun crews and the merchant crewmen.

Book Description
The considerations necessary to assure merchant marine shipping will be a profit making endeavor are many. One in particular is that of keeping structural casualties from occurring. In order to reduce the number of structural casualties, those that have occurred should be analyzed to determine the reason and remedy. This project is concerned with these various aspects of structural casualties and their influences on the reliability of the ship. The primary reason for the investigation has been the desire of the Ship Structure Committee to develop a procedure, or use an existing one, using structural casualty data, to assign priorities to future research projects on a cost effective basis. The availability of adequate data for such a study had been questioned and hence this pilot study to evaluate the situation developed.
