“SUB SAILOR”  By Grover S. McLeod. (Fiction) From the author of

“Sub Duty” a work of true World War II Pacific submarine duty comes “Sub

Sailor.”  McLeod saw action aboard American submarines in the Pacific,

serving in USS Finback (SS-230) USS Halibut (SS-232) and USS Hawkbill

(SS-366). This was the author’s first great novel of World War II

submarines. Join the sub service with seaman Ham, and become a

crewman on the (fictional) submarine, USS Terrapin, that became the

scourge of the Japanese in the far Pacific. Follow the teamwork and

training that sent torpedoes streaking, accurately and unsuspectingly to

the bottoms of Jap supply and naval vessels. Live through jarring depth

charge attacks, exciting gun actions, feel the tension of sub attacking sub.

Follow Ham's adventures from submarine sailor to guerilla, when he is

accidently left topside and forcedto swim to Panay and joins a band of

Moros, and though downed by a great tropical killer, Malaria, pulls through

with more than enough strength to fight again and again. 1964 first edition

Hardback with dust jacket. 315 pages, several diagrams and illustrations,

one map, no photos or index. Extremely difficult book to find, and long out-

of-print. Autographed (dated 8-28-64) by the late author!
