Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword-- "Published here is the diary that Taussig kept during his time in command of the first U.S. destroyers to arrive in the war zone in 1917. The entries, letters, and reports reveal U.S. and Allied naval personnel grappling with the issues of technological, tactical, and doctrinal innovation; the difficulties of the Navy's early experiences in combined command, control, communication, and coordination; the sometimes awkward matching of operational means with strategic ends; the troubles in mastering both shallow-water and open-ocean antisubmarine warfare; and even the distressing consequences of friendly fire. Most importantly, we find the earliest glimpses of American naval participation in modern coalition warfare."

Book excerpt: Shortly after one the morning of September 11, 1943, the destroyer USS Rowan (DD 405), was torpedoed by German e-boats. In less than a minute, the ship was at the bottom of the Mediterranean and two-hundred-four men were dead, including Francis Kirwin "Bob" Seeley. Among the seventy-two survivors was his older brother, Lewis Everett Seeley. Wracked by grief and guilt, Lewis spent the next four decades trying to forget that night. But eventually, he found himself unable to ignore or resist the insistent nightmares of the sinking. He realized that the only way he could lay to rest the ghosts of his past was to seek out the company of his shipmates. Only with their help could he piece together the broken fragments of his life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people you live with for years and go on to have thought you had known them all your life, yet you never knew who they really were. Yes, they were your mom and dad. Dad was like that, a very quiet but an intelligent man. He was a great provider for his family. Mom was more open in her puzzle pieces of life. I am still trying to put together those pieces to understand and see the big picture of two people whom I called my parents. With the plethora of information and documentation I found after my dad’s death in his war cedar chest, I now know who he was and maybe why he was such a quiet man. Knowing this information before his death might have brought us closer together. As the saying goes, you often find out more about a person after they have died. Why is that?

Download or read book From Dartmouth to War written by Adrian Holloway and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From Dartmouth to War "is a first-hand account of life as a Royal Navy midshipman during the Second World War. The book includes descriptions of the Battle of Matapan, the bombing of Taranto and the sinking of HMS Barham. Adrian Holloway was only 17 when he left the Royal Naval College at Dartmouth in 1940 and joined HMS Valiant as a Midshipman, sharing a gunroom with Midshipmen Terry Lewin and HRH Prince Philip. He arrived in the Mediterranean in time to witness the darkest days of the Mediterranean Fleet--providing cover for the Fleet Air Arm's raid on Taranto, fighting at the Battle of Matapan and taking part in the evacuation of Crete--during which time the Royal Navy's vessels were decimated. He also witnessed the sinking of HMS Barham, and after returning from a posting to the Australian destroyer HMAS Nizam, was back onboard Valiant when Italian frogmen mined her in Alexandria Harbor in 1941. In "From Dartmouth to War" Adrian Holloway presents a fascinating first-hand account of the war at sea, vividly recalling what it was like to be in battle whilst still little more than a schoolboy. He describes the transition from the safety of Dartmouth to the terror and confusion of the open ocean, at a time when Britain stood alone against the Axis. Complete with personal photographs, track charts, and naval signals, this book provides an invaluable insight into the wartime activities of a junior officer.

Book excerpt: It's summer 1939 and Europe is a pan of milk coming to the boil heated by the furious expansionism of Hitler's Nazi Germany. National Service has been brought back and despite Neville Chamberlain's promise of 'peace in our time' everyone knows that war is inevitable.Ronnie Turner, a south coast holiday camp sous chef, knew it. He had already joined the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve (RNVR) and was no doubt licking his lips at the prospect of having "a smack at the Boche."Like all wartime service personnel Ronnie wasn't supposed to keep a diary in case it fell into enemy hands. But Ronnie never did like to take orders and as his nephew looking back from nearly eighty years after he recorded his experiences in words and photographs, I can only marvel at what he went through.This isn't a hero's story. It's a tale of an ordinary bloke, plucked from an ordinary job and thrown into a war to 'have a smack at the Boche'.

Book excerpt: IN A NAVAL CAREER that spanned nearly four decades and led him to ports of call and engagements around the globe, John "Dutchy" Edwards rose from cadet to Commodore in a career rich in adventure and service to his country. This carefully researched and faithfully reproduced volume of his journals begins with Dutchy's early naval experiences in the theatre of battle during the First World War, then follows his peacetime progress on the west and east coasts of Canada in the "Roaring Twenties". It continues in a return to the Mediterranean aboard HMS Valiant and concludes with North American patrols in command of HMCS Champlain. HELEN EDWARDS' extensive research skills and knowledge of family history have immeasurably enriched Dutchy's journals, bringing his words to life for a worldwide audience and enhancing our understanding of one of the most notable periods in Canada's emergence onto the world stage.
