Into the Dark Water: The Story of Three Officers and Pt-109

by John J. Domagalski

Book Overview

Main Selection of the Military Book Club

Made famous by her final commanding officer, John F. Kennedy, PT-109 is one of the most celebrated warships in American history. However, a full chronicle of PT-109's wartime story has heretofore been lacking. Behind the familiar account of the future president and the boat's violent demise is the little-known record under two previous officers during the swirling battles around Guadalcanal.
