Craig Reed ´ 8 review review Red November ☆ eBook, ePUB or Kindle PDF “Red November delivers the real life feel and fears of submariners who risked their lives to keep the peace” Steve Berry author of The Paris VendettaW Craig Reed a former navy diver and fast attack submariner provides a riveting portrayal of the secre. This is the story of underwater warfare during the Cold War The author Craig Reed was a Navy diver and submariner He has a set of riveting tales of the silent battle fought beneath the waves between the US and the USSR Most of the stories were probably classified as secret or top secret during the Cold War In fact I am amazed that some of the stories were ever declassified The story of the pack of four Soviet diesel submarines sent to the Caribbean during the Cuban Missile Crisis is unbelievable Each of the submarines carried a nuclear tipped torpedo And each of the submarines independently and for different reasons were within minutes of launching their nuclear torpedoesReed tells stories of what it feels like as a submariner to be hounded by adversarial forces using ASW Anti Submarine Warfare weapons He tells some of these stories in the first person he was a diver on board submarines performing some super secret missions Also Reed tells the story of how his father an electrical engineer developed radio interception techniues that were helpful in localizing Soviet submarinesWhile the stories are spellbinding the writing is very poor While I am sure that the essentials of the stories are true many of the dialogs are probably invented And they come off sounding stilted and amateurish So read this book for the incredible stories but don t expect good literature
