Claude C. Conner weaves a compelling tale of his World War II experiences in the Pacific aboard the USS Guardfish, one of the Navy’s top-scoring submarines. Engagingly written and well documented, this memoir chronicles the submarine’s Hollywood-like war actions, including her perilous forays into Japanese-held island as well as a dramatic struggle with the near-catastrophic flooding of Guardfish’s conning tower, numerous depth-charge attacks, and much more.
