Heroes Beneath the Waves
I am a lifetime member of .the World War II Veterans Wives and USSVI Wives and I am the author of this book. A book for preteens and up. "Heroes Beneath the Waves" is about teenage boys who left farms, small towns, and inner cities to defend the United States and democracy worldwide. Signing up for United States Navy submarine duty was an adventure of a lifetime during the early 1940s. Dreams of torpedoing Japanese and German ships and subs consumed their thoughts. Those who returned home as young men were older and wiser. Heroes Beneath the Waves was written to honor these men—gallant heroes—who served and are serving today on submarines. The unbelievable stories of the heroic men who sailed under the sea. Wife of CPO Melvin T. Smith served in WWII, Korean War and Vietnam. He served on submarines and Anti-submarine HS-7 Helicopters.
