War Chronicle 059: Sinking Everything: Memoirs of the Pacific Fleet Submarine Force Commander's War Against Japan
About This Novel
This book provides a complete and detailed description of the Pacific War and submarine warfare from 1942 to 1945. From "lone wolf tactics" to large-scale joint operations with the surface fleet, this "silent fleet" has achieved remarkable results. In the book, author Lockwood tells many real-life stories of submarine commanders as they carried out tasks such as transporting supplies, searching and rescuing personnel, reconnaissance of enemy-occupied islands, secret infiltration, and breaking through enemy mine barriers in waterways. These stories come from during maritime patrols or from the captains' own living rooms. A large number of vivid details add real footnotes to the text in the book, and the humanity and kindness revealed between the lines are also refreshing and enjoyable. In addition, the author also describes in detail the flaws of the new generation of submarines at that time, the setbacks suffered in combat and the improvement process of torpedoes.
