Before dawn breaks, the undersea prowler surfaces to attack, and though the ship finds itself at the enemy's mercy, Shorty and his crewmates have other plans when the boarding party arrives.

As enemy planes and ships close in, Gibson learns there's more to submarine warfare than he bargained for.

Mission: Tirpitz
7 pp · war
Hans

In 1943, a British task force launches a desperate raid to destroy Germany's formidable battleship Tirpitz, which has taken shelter deep within a heavily fortified Norwegian fiord. Three midget submarines creep through sixty miles of treacherous waters bristling with listening posts, minefields, and anti-torpedo nets, hoping to plant explosives on the ship's keel before the enemy can stop them. When one sub is detected and the crew forced to abandon their vessel, the race becomes a deadly game of cat and mouse as the British frogmen fight to complete their mission while their German captors close in.
