Reviews
On Dec 9 2010, Argobarb said:
I did not serve on the Barb during ww11 but did serve serve on her during the Korean war. I felt that the book was most accurate in discribing what actually happens on a submarine during a war patrol. Adm. fluckey was a most unusal commnander and I would have been proud and honered to have served with him.
