Hardback. Etat : Fair. The book bristles with the excitement of the chase. -- The New York Times Book Review Would-be Captain Nemos and other fans of undersea adventure will enjoy this vigorous memoir. -- Publishers Weekly Spy Sub is the acclaimed story of the secret mission by the American nuclear submarine, code named US Viperfish, to find a lost Soviet submarine armed with nuclear missiles in the great depths of the Pacific Ocean. This story is based on true events that remain classified by the U.S. Department of Defense, nearly 50 years after the search. Moving silently beneath the Soviet ships prowling on the surface, the Viperfish hunt was so secretive that even the men on the vessel never knew the object of their search. The brave exploits of these sailors and their commanding officer recount one of the greatest undersea searches in naval history. The failures, the near-catastrophes, and the challenges are described in personal detail and their final success earned them the highest award for a submarine crew, the Presidential Unit Citation. The story of how these men brought critical intelligence information to President Lyndon Johnson is a saga like none other in the annals of submarine exploits. Roger C. Dunham, M.D. served as a nuclear reactor operator in the U.S. Navy's Submarine Service during the 1960's. Following his honorable discharge in 1969, he earned a medical degree from the University of California, Los Angeles School of Medicine. N° de réf. du vendeur 00103310338
