Lockwood was an officer in the United States Navy. His tenure as commander of the US submarine force in the Pacific theater of operations greatly increased that force's effectiveness in the Second World War.
Lockwood retired from the Navy in 1947 after a Stint as Naval Inspector General. In his retirement, he wrote several books about submarines, including his own experiences.
Amazing!! From the first page you better hold on!! Exciting and riveting. LOVED this book. I am a friend of his daughter Barbara Lee, who loaned me the book.
Actually have this volume in my kindle library, excellent telling of the life and death of Samuel D Dealey and the USS Harder. Along with Dudley ‘Mush’ Morton and Richard ‘Dick’ O’kane one of the finest submarine commanders of WII. Dealey Plaza in Dallas Texas that of the infamous Asassination of JFK is named after Sam Dealeys Grandfather.
