Book Synopsis Zoomies, Subs, and Zeros (Annotated) by : Hans Adamson
Download or read book Zoomies, Subs, and Zeros (Annotated) written by Hans Adamson and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As air battles with Japanese fighter planes increased over the Pacific toward the end of World War 2, the Submarine Lifeguard League was formed to rescue downed aviators who had zoomed into the drink. The League helped save the lives of hundreds of Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps pilots - including the life of future President George H. W. Bush - from Japanese Zero planes as well as from certain death at sea. This literally last-ditch safety net for American carrier-launched fighter pilots is said to have given them stronger confidence in their dogfights with the Japanese over the vast expanses of the Pacific. Author Charles A. Lockwood (Hellcats of the Sea) brings his usual flair for submarine stories to this hair-raising account of the adventures of the Lifeguard League. *Includes annotations and images.

Download or read book Back from the Deep written by Carl P Lavo and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2012-04-15 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This epic World War II saga follows the USS Squalus and Sculpin as they play out their dramatic destinies in the Pacific. The author, a seasoned journalist, re-creates their entire perilous journey. The Squalus sank during a test dive in 1939, but thirty-three trapped crewmen were saved thanks to the revolutionary use of the McCann diving bell. The Sculpin's role in that historic rescue is just the first of many incongruous twists of fate that brought the two subs together after the Squalus was salvaged and rechristened the Sailfish. Carl LaVO skillfully weaves together the tragic loss of the Sculpin to a Japanese destroyer with the frenetic wrath of its sister sub. Their intertwined fates come to an eerie climax as the Sailfish unleashes a ten-hour attack on the Japanese aircraft carrier Chuyo amid a raging typhoon, unwittingly killing twenty-two of the forty-three Americans captured from the sunken Sculpin. The saga comes to a close with a moving description of the surviving Sculpin crewmen as they face incredible hardship, torture, and disease as POWs in Japan. This book is certain to instill a renewed appreciation for the intrepid men and stealthy boats that were the soul of the Pacific campaign's silent service.

Download or read book The Fast Carriers written by Clark G Reynolds and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2013-09-15 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic study is considered essential reading for its analysis of fast aircraft carrier development in WWII. It provides a fascinating record not only of the U.S. Navy's metamorphosis from a battleship-oriented to a carrier-centered fleet, but also of the heated debates that took place over the changing naval strategy. With an insider's grasp of the famous individuals involved, award-winning naval historian Clark G. Reynolds takes readers from the war rooms of Washington to the flight decks of the Pacific. He vividly describes the battles over the concept of fast carriers between the air admirals and battleship admirals and offers little-known details gleaned from personal interviews and private diaries.
