There may also be other submarine museums that offer some information to the public. The Library of Congress may have free material. You may even want to consult the services of the national archives.

Even works of fiction offer excellent accounts of the standardized communications associated with battle station scenarios. “Run Silent Run Deep” by Edward L.

Several former submarine officers have published their own materials relating to the submarine experience and I suspect that if you can find

I think the material is out there for the public however, you will need to do some homework.

Since you adress the novels, I just ordered "SSN Seawolf" from an online bookstore.
