“WAR PATROLS Of The USS FLASHER.” The true story of One of America’s Greatest Submarines. Officially Credited with Sinking the Most Japanese Shipping in World War II. By William R. McCants. The Author’s father, Captain Thomas McCants, USN (Ret.) was an officer aboard USS Flasher (SS-249) and severed with the sub throughout her duty in World War II. McCants went on to become the last executive officer with the sub. Flasher saw seven action-packed war patrols in the Pacific. Commander’s George Grider, and Reuben Whitaker helped put Flasher at the top of the list for Japanese tonnage sunk in the Pacific. This is truly the definitive work on Flasher, covering her entire career from launching until she was decommissioned in 1946. A must-have for every submariner and or fan. 1994 Hardback edition with an impressive full-color dust jacket. 465 pages, 52 black and white photos, countless detailed drawings, diagrams and several maps. Book was printed only once and has larger, easy to read type, with an index and a complete Flasher crew roster. Now out-of-print and very difficult to find.
