Seawolf Park
in Galveston, Texas, is a tribute to USS Seawolf (SS-197),
a famous World War II submarine on eternal patrol. Before her loss
in 1944, "the Wolf" was a star performer of the U.S. Submarine
Force. After battling faulty torpedoes early in the war, skipper
"Fearless Freddie" Warder began using a periscope camera
to document his torpedo performance. Some of the photos his crew
captured are among those most published from the war.
Relive Seawolf's
battles through the words of many of her officers and enlisted men.
Of special interest are the diary entries of Chief "Bud"
McCoy, who was later lost aboard Seawolf on her 15th war patrol.

REVIEWS OF WAR OF THE WOLF
|
"War
of the Wolf is a magnificent read. As a veteran of the World
War II boats, I can attest to how the true flavor of life during
war patrols has been captured. Steve Moore has done an excellent
job of blending detailed research with the first-hand stories he
collected from the veterans of the famous submarine Seawolf.Charles
H. Ver Valin, Lt. Cdr., USN (Ret.)
The story
of the Seawolf was a great read and was very informative of the
full story and the unfortunate loss of this great boat and her fine
crew. I was especially interested in the details of Captain Warder's
tour on the Seawolf, which were new to me and for which I am grateful
as he was my best man at my marriage in New London in May 1946.Kevin
