A proposito di questo titolo

On November 2, 1942, USS Seawolf (SS-197) maneuvered through shifting currents and deteriorating weather outside Davao Gulf before launching an attack on the Japanese ship Gifu Maru. Commander Frederick “Fearless Freddie” Warder’s patrol report documents the changing firing plan, the observed torpedo hit, and the ship’s rapid sinking.

In this episode of Patrol Reports, USSVI National Historian Dave Bowman follows the action through Warder’s account, including its sobering aftermath: forty-one men counted in the water, failed lifeboats, and a rescue vessel that never appeared while Seawolf remained nearby. It is a close look at submarine combat and the limits of what a commanding officer could know through his periscope.
