"U-BOAT KILLER". Cant remember the authors name but it is the real account of his service as captain of a british destroyer in the atlantic. If I remember correctly he is the guy that nailed Otto Kreschmer.

That is an excellent book. I think that it puts Clear the Bribge in context with some of the other sub skippers. I have always wondered what happened between a couple of Wahoo's patrols where O'Kane ended up with a black eye. Forest Sterling mentions it in his book, and I think Tuohy has more detail if I remember right.
