Summary: What a story!
Comment: This is the wonderful story of a high-spirited youth's adventures through WWII. Like the fun loving youngster he was, the story is mostly fun reading but turns to grim sadness in the excellently crafted combat narratives. The story takes you from Buck as a youth in prewar America with an hilarious missed love-life opportunity to a seasoned warrior forcible relieving the Officer of the Day on his own bridge when he didn't follow the Admiral's orders.

The early part is a matter-of-fact telling of a different America where his grandfather had to sell pencils to live and a youngster who split his meager pay to send to his grandmother. His war starts in the Mediterranean with landings in North Africa and Salerno. You later experience with Buck the Battle of Leyte Gulf with its Kamikazes and sail into Tokyo Bay, all the while getting into regular trouble because Buck loves his shore time. What a story!
