"The U.S. Navy's most innovative, non-conforming, daring skipper tells in intimate detail a gripping and exciting story -- unashamed in sorrow, proud in record-setting accomplishment, rich in humor. Great!" -- "Adm. I.J. Galantin, USN (Ret.), author of Take Her Deep"
"An authoritative, useful, and interesting view of Pacific Ocean submarine operations." -- " "American Historical Review""

"An extraordinary story... Schratz is a superb observer!" -- " "Friday Review of Defense Literature""
"An ebullient, consistently engrossing memoir of submarine service in WWII's Pacific theater and during the Korean conflict." -- " "Kirkus Reviews""
"An action-filled account of the wartime operations of the Navy submarine fleet." -- "McCormick (SC) Messenger"
"Serves as a moving testimonial to the many brave men with whom he served." -- " "Northern Mariner""
"A commanding and well told tale.... Schratz succeeds in making wartime submarining come alive for nonsubmariners." -- " "Shipmate""
"Fascinating... A delight to read not only because it is well written but because it is so very real seen through the eyes of a completely involved observer." -- " "Submarine Review""
"Schratz's description of life aboard a submarine is one of the single best accounts of the 'Silent Service' during World War II and the Korean War....The book is highly recommended." -- Leo J. Daugherty III, " "World War Quarterly""
