Guys,
At the risk of appearing self-promotional and all that ...
Squadron has just informed me that my Sub Chaser book is available for sale.

That is shamless to promote yourself like that.
But, seriously thank you for passing that along.

Thanks very much Garth.
Looks to be a superb book.
I had obtained some detail from Squadron/Signal and have posted a news story for the benefit of everyone.

Garth (and to anyone else) your Schnellboot in Action is a superb book.
I expect this new one will be no different.
So credit where credit is due.
Cheers

All,
I've just received my 25 gratis copies of the SC book and I must say, I am quite impressed with the quality of the product. The quality of the photos is really good.
I mentioned that because I, like the majority of you have had serious issues with the quality of the photos in the newer Squadron books of late, specifically those books by a Mr. Adcock.
Based on what I've seen in those books and from all of your comments about them - I was, understandably scared out of my ghord over this book. From what I've just seen in a completed product, I feel that, WITHOUT BEING CONTRADICTED, that you will not be disappointed.
This is NOT a Mr. Adcock book ............
I was impressed and I'm my own worse critic.

Last week, a reporter from my local paper interviewed me about the book ... today, the photographer came to take the photos for it. Kinda cool, ya know?
Bob Cicconi, your PT-596 is going to get press time!
