Unsinkable : five men and the indomitable run of the USS Plunkett / James Sullivan.
The USS Plunkett was a US Navy destroyer that sustained the most harrowing attack on any Navy ship by the Germans during World War II, that gave as good as it got, and that earned a reputation as the "fightin'est ship" in the Navy. The book traces the journeys of five men on the ship from Casablanca in North Africa, to Sicily and Salerno in Italy, and on to Plunkett's defining moment at Anzio.
