Manual of Current (1944) Submarine Doctrine

[Capt. S. A. Wood]

Found a manual involving the doctrine of submarine's in WWII. Seems to cover almost everything, and seems to be written in an Art of War kind of way with just lists of quotes or instructional sentences (always the best way).

Sorry about that. I had not seen it, and notice like you said it had been pushed down the pages by the sheer volume of participants on this forum. Go ahead and delete this one though since it already exists, might wanna bump the original though so people still can check it out. :)

Very impressive. It's to the USN what the Uboat Cdr's Handbook was to the Kriegsmarine.

Great reading material.
