Overview
"Two Australian writers who have studied the subject for years tell here for the first time the complete story of the U.S. submarine task force based in Brisbane, Australia, during World War II." David Jones and Peter Nunan draw on the personal experiences of individual sailors to give readers a dramatic picture of life at sea, including some heroic encounters with the enemy and clandestine special missions, as well as training and leave activities. They also record the professional cooperation and personal friendships that developed between the Australians and Americans. These details are then linked to the larger strategic picture of the war.Book Details
