Book Description
Dette er et engelsk værk omhandlende følgende uheldskategorier i de omtalte flåder, nemlig: Brand og eksplosioner, grundstødninger, kollisioner, materiel- og strukturelle nedbrud, skibsvæfts- og doksætningsuheld, beskydning af egne styrker og ukendte årsager. Bogen behandler rigtigt mange, men dog ikke alle dokumenterede større uheld. Således behandles f. eks. ikke minelæggeren FYENs alvorlige grundstødning i Boknafjorden. Til slut behandles overlevelses- og rednings- samt bjærgningsvirksomhed. Et oplysende værk for især skibschefer og teknikofficerer.

Book Description
Ten years after the close of World War II, the U.S. Navy published a chronology of its operations in the war. Long out of print, the work focused on what were then defined as critical and decisive events. It ignored a multitude of combat actions as well as the loss or damage of many types of U.S. ships and craft—particularly auxiliaries, amphibious ships, and district craft—and entirely omitted the U.S. submarine campaign against Japanese shipping, This greatly expanded and updated study, now available in paperback with an index, goes far beyond the original work, drawing on information from more than forty additional years of historical research and writing. Massive, but well organized, it addresses operational aspects of the U.S. Navy’s war in every theater.

Book Description
Submariners are a tight knit group of men bound together by training and experience, and with a language all their own. That language is perhaps a little vulgar, but never intentionally demeaning, and a little irreverent but still worldly. This work is an attempt to preserve and explain some of these curious guys who so proudly wear a shiny metal pin that looks like a strange pair of fish on their left breast. This process of accumulating this new language begins in Boot Camp, and is added to with every change of duty station the sailor undergoes. It is heard aboard the boats and, unknowingly, by family members who can't understand terms like head, deck, and overhead, and who think SOS is a distress signal.
