Reseña del libro "When In All Ways Ready For Sea: The Saga Of The USS PC 470 During WWII"

Sixty years after the end of WWII, W. Neil McBride sat down to commit his experience as a patriotic young farm boy signing up for service in the Navy. He chronicles his travels to exotic locales he never would have imagined. The end result of this labor of love, which was created from memory by a man in his 90s, is a historical WWII journal with universal appeal. Written as a first person narrative, he describes not only his individual experience, but also the national patriotism of the time. Included in this account is a bird's eye view of what is considered the largest naval battle in the history of the world: the Battle of Leyte Gulf. The story is not told from the point of view of a general, nor from the point of view of a captain, but from the point of view of our everyman. Join him on this quiet hero's journey to experience our nation's safe return home.
