Clay Blair served in the pacific on a submarine (Guardfish).
Silent Victory is an excellent book.
I could equally quote Roscoe, or other tomes I have on US operations in the pacific.
You're welcome to source the statement that US subs never fired past 2000 yards though. Who ever said anyone would fire without trying to determine the range (particularly at extreme range)? Certainly not me.
BTW, he wrote Silent Victory before his u-boat books.
