While a lot of it is based on peacetime, it was hard not to be engrossed in the history and the personal lives of six Officer Cadets joining Dartmouth back in '63, and joining them on their Naval careers which ultimately led to nuclear subs for the RN. The narrative on The Falkland's conflict is one of the best I have read...purely from a Naval and tactical point. And thier viewpoint of the Russian nuclear deterrent is a revelation.

From the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the threat of a nuclear Armageddon was an everyday reality. The front line of what Churchill called the balance of terror was the submarine forces whose missiles were targeted on the world's cities. Hundreds of feet beneath the waves, these leviathans vied for supremacy that could mean global dominance - or destruction. Alongside them worked the attack submarines, tasked wtih finding the missile submarines and - in time of war - with destroying them. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
