3. Picked up a book yesterday
"Final Patrol" by Don Keith. It highlights 16 American and one German WWII Submarines which are currently on display and open to the public. It includes information on the Subs War record and where they are now located. Good Stuff.

5. Thanks. The last Sub book I read was Blind Mans Bluff.
Right now I'm reading the complete Patrick O'Brian Aubrey/Maturin series. Into the third book of the 21 book series, HMS Surprise. LOL, I have a long way to go.
A great read if you are into early 19th century naval history though they are based on the British navy.
