Reseña del editor:

THE BOOK I HAD TO WRITE I spent 30 years of my life as a US Navy Officer. All those years were great. But the one year, 1976, was the best year of my life. I was the Commanding Officer of the best ship in the US Navy. I had the finest crew anyone could hope for. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it.
