À propos de cet audio
On September 18, 1942, the USS Gurnard joined the fleet as one of the many Gato class submarines built to carry the war into enemy waters. She would go on to complete nine patrols across the Pacific, striking hard at Japanese shipping and earning her place among the hunters of the deep. The story of Gurnard is not only about steel and tonnage, but about the men who endured long weeks of silence and sudden bursts of terror as depth charges rained down and torpedoes ran true. From the sinking of the Taiko Maru to the famous attack on the Take Ichi convoy, Gurnard’s history is a tale of survival, determination, and impact far beyond her size. In today’s episode we trace her path through the war, patrol by patrol, and remember what it meant to live and fight inside a submarine during the hardest days of World War II.
