Originally printed during WWII by the Commander of Submarines, Atlantic Fleet, "Submarine Phraseology" was standard issue for sailors serving in the Silent Service. The first section of the book puts forth general rules for formulating messages, with an emphasis on creating uniform voice procedures. The second part of the text covers specific forms of phraseology used in various operations. Whether you're a submarine fleet veteran, a museum docent, a fan of submarine history, or a screenwriter who wants to create historically accurate dialogue, this book makes a great addition to any submarine library.
