For information about real submarines and submariners, please see the list of “Real World Links” to the left. I am not now nor have I ever been a member of the US or any other Navy, and this site is not meant to trivialize the very real service and sacrifice of those men who served in the Silent Service during World War II.

Laquo; Patrol 1, Day 15. Patrol 1, Day 17. Patrol 1, Day 16. While we haven’t seen any more merchant traffic coming toward Rabaul, the watch spotted a large sampan at 1345 hours, and I decided it would be a good exercise to stalk it. Radar made no report on the target, but given a sampan’s small size that’s hardly surprising. The deck gun crew did their jobs well, and the sampan was set ablaze and was listing heavily just over a minute later. We are returning to course. Site Info and Menu.

Laquo; Patrol 1, Day 1. Patrol 1, Day 15. Patrol 1, Day 11. After a few unproductive days in The Slot, we have received orders to proceed to the northern Solomon Sea. I hope that once on station we will have orders that will allow me the latitude to proceed west of of Blanche Bay as I suspect we’ll find heavy traffic there in and out of Rabaul, which the Japanese took just a few months ago.

Patrol 1, Day 11. Patrol 1, Day 1. We set out today from Brisbane, and I find I have full faith in the courage and skill of the crew under my new command. I wish the same could be said for the boat herself. As we made preparations to get underway, I could not help but notice, with no small degree of envy, the newer fleet boats tied up near by. While we have some of the new equipment, I can not help but be less then confident in physical plant of this vessel which is clearly showing it’s age.
