Thanks for the tip, I will contact him as I would like to view those stories again.

Just as an aside (it may sound corny), but I loved that series so much that it helped push me to enlist in the Navy in 1960 (age 17). Got selected for sub school and spent 20 years riding the boats. One that I was on (and decommissioned in 1973) was the U.S.S. Tirante SS-420. That boats shipper (George Street) won a Medal Of Honor while he was on her in 1944 or 1945.

Thanks again, as I have been retired for 24 years now.

Regards,
Bob Gavan
