At random: Fleet Admiral Halsey in a book called "The Admirals" when asked "What is the ultimate strategic weapon that is bringing the enemy to its knees? Halsey's reply "If I had to give credit to the instruments and machines that won us the war in the Pacific, I would rank them in this order: SUBMARINES, FIRST; RADAR, SECOND; PLANES, THIRD AND BULLDOZERS FOURTH."

This is a fantastic book. Any Ironhead should have a copy on the shelf! I assure you, it is well worth the cost if you have any interest in submarine engines.

The author is the son of the founder of Cummins Diesel. He is a associate member of Blueback Base. Nice guy and very good book. All snipes should read the book.
