I look out at the water. Dark gray clouds meet the furious sea, blending into a pool of dead and dying bodies. Sailors from two German U-Boats we engaged. Our skipper took a bullet in the throat. He isn't dead yet, but the X.O. now stands in command of our destroyer.
In the distance, the top of another U-Boat emerges. Their wolf-pack is now down to one. The X.O. orders more depth charges deployed. I watch. I wait. From behind the barrels of our anti-aircraft guns, I’ve never been more ready to deal out death in the name of America.
