Something I've never come across before, this mention of rockets on a sub. I quote:
Shortly after midnight Barb launched the first rocket attack in US Submarine history, firing 12 5in rockets into the town at a range of 5250 yards. The town being 'Shari' on the north coast of Hokkaido. Unquote

This extract is from a booklet just given to me by a friend. This is full of pics photo's and the operational record of the USS BARB!
