Navy Years: Adventures in the Cold War by Peter E. Schilling
Going to sea in the Cold War was the great adventure of a young man's life. It took him far from his childhood home in northern Ohio. It taught him the skills, disciplines, and routines of men who sailed U.S. Navy ships. It convinced him that three-quarters of the earth's surface really is covered with water. After graduating from Annapolis, he served at sea from 1961 to 1965, sailing in the Caribbean and Mediterranean Seas, and crossing the North Atlantic Ocean eight times. He served on the quarantine line in the Cuban Missile Crisis, when America and the Soviet Union sailed close to the grim monster of nuclear war, then steered away. This book is about his education at the U.S. Naval Academy, and his adventures in the Navy's large gray ships and small gray boats.
