Year: 2012 Language: English Author: Chas Cooke Genre: History Edition: Kindle Format: AZW3 Quality: eBook Pages count: 227 Description: The Royal Navy's submarine flotilla is known as The Silent Service. Spending weeks and sometimes months beneath the oceans in a dangerous world where one mistake could bring about the loss of the entire crew, submariners are a breed apart. Chas Cooke spent thirteen years serving in the three main types of submarine in the Royal Navy's arsenal and in this book he tells of the camaraderie of those who serve together beneath the waves, of the strains such a life places on the submariner's family and the raucous and sometimes bizarre behaviour of those who spend their lives in a steel tube many hundreds of feet under the water. Why Should Britain Tremble - A Submariner's Tale is a sometimes bawdy, often comical and occasionally heartwrenching story of the submariner's life. Additional info: From the Author: I wrote this book as a tribute to two seperate groups of people. Firstly to the men with whom I served who were the best and most loyal friends I could have wished for, a group to whom the motto, One for All and All for One really does apply. Secondly to the wives and families of submariners worldwide, friend and, in the past, enemy, who endure unimaginable hardship and loneliness while their husbands, sons, fathers etc are away at sea. Unable to contact each other for months on end those waiting at home have only themselves to look to in time of trouble and wait, always unsure whether their loved ones will return.
