註釋The story of the United States Naval Armed Guard, told through the letters of a young recruit from Southern Illinois. Armed Guard sailors protected troops, guns, and other essential materials sent on American and Allied merchant vessels. His gunnery assignments during 1943 and 1944 involved several hazardous Atlantic crossings--as those ships brought food and supplies to war-torn Britain and bombs and ammunition to the Allies fighting in fiercely contested Italy.
