Sole Survivors Of The Sea

The World War II destroyer was a splendid ship if its speed and maneuverability were in the hands of a capable captain. Such a man is Captain Alden Sorenson who assumes command of the USS Carson, which steams into the South Pacific in 1943 to support the fast carrier operations and the allied landings on New Guinea and Morotai. With the crew of the Carson, the reader will watch closely for the subtle wakes of torpedoes in the night-time waters or brace for fierce air attacks by Japanese Zekes.

Profiles of twenty-one men who overcame the odds and became sole survivors.
