- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5There are MANY WW2 PT boat stories - almost all of them part of an "after action" or "there I was shooting it out" history. This is presented as a story of men at war. Not perfect people, just sailors doing a job in a place and at a time most can only imagine. Well Done!
