Authors note:
This is a short story that I wrote in 1972 for a college
writing class following my departure from the Navy. The story is presented, exactly as researched and written then. I have scanned the pictures from the original. Unfortunately, the scotch tape used on the pictures has yellowed over the years. Please enjoy the story. GLC |

(Wait for a couple of minutes before advancing to hear "Take Her Down", the "Silent Service" TV theme song.)
