Beschreibung
Real Stories from a Nuclear Submariner describes Alan S. Votta's
many experiences and memories during his twenty-four years
in the United States Navy Nuclear Submarine Service; including
his early days as a raw Navy recruit, attending training schools,
building several subs, going on patrols, and becoming a Naval instructor.
He has included many stories that depict the diffi culty of
the training and the intensity and responsibility of the job. There are
stories on the lighter side, which depict the many humorous day to-
day occurrences that broke the tension and offered some relief
to the severity of the task at hand, while being part of the silent
service. The author's personality and sense of humor come through
loud and clear in the stories he tells, as well as his love and respect
for his fellow submariners and the honor and pride he felt having
served in the United States Navy as a nuclear submariner. He paints
a true picture of the trials and tribulations of life onboard a sub as
the nuclear submarine service was growing in the U.S. during the
60s and 70s. Alan Votta's engaging stories will have mass appeal
to the general public, and particularly to anyone who has served
in the military.
