Question:I am enjoying “Sink the Shigure”. It is one of those books that one can not seem to put down until it is read completely. I started my career in diesel boats, but had to give it up due to inner ear problems. I am therefore particularly interested in these actions. I went to destroyers, […]

Question:Get qualified Commander. First of all if the conn was flooded you would blow safety not auxiliaries. There are two main motors not four. Negative is amid ship not forward. The auxiliary man of the watch blows tanks, not the chief of the watch and Fairbanks Morse engines are 10 cylinder engines not 16. Other […]

Question:Dear Mr. Cooke, I just finished your heart-stopping novel “Sink the Shigure”. I read it practically in one sitting as the characters pulled me into the story. I have spent a good portion of my life in Africa leading safaris and reading more adventure books than I can count — from Wilbur Smith to Clive […]

Question:Sink the Shigure is wonderful. I was in the U.S. Navy from 1952-1960 and aboard the USS Sperry AS-12 the same time you were aboard. I celebrated my 80th birthday on August 24, 2012 and have attended several Sperry Reunions. If you live in Greensboro, NC, I wonder if you ever met my school classmate […]
