Download or read book Seabee Book written by U. s. Navy Bureau of Yards and Docks and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume I is 478 pages and contains over 200 illustrations, maps and photographs. It covers the planning and funding of the construction effort, the creation of the Seabees and the stateside building of bases and facilities. The Book is a record of the pre-war status of the shore establishment and narrates the events of the preparatory and national defense emergency periods preceding Pearl Harbor, as well as the activities during the war itself. These accomplishments are recounted as factually and as comprehensively as possible. Every effort has been made to correlate the sequence of action by the Bureau Of Yards and Docks, (now known as the Naval Facilities Engineering Command-N AVFAC)-with the basic events and major decisions which guided the course of the war effort as a whole. While the Book is a record of the work accomplished by the Bureau of Yards and Docks, the Corps of Civil Engineers, the Construction Battalions-popularly known as the "Seabees," and the many civilian employees, engineering firms and contractors associated with the Bureau's program in furtherance of this country's war effort. Every endeavor has been made to correlate these activities with the broad sequence of events and with the policies and decisions which were the basis for each successive course of action. World War II was by far the greatest military cataclysm in the history of the world. In the number of men involved, in its demands on the resources of the world, in the scientific and technical progress it forced, in its three-dimensional scope over the entire globe, and in the intensity of the fighting and savagery toward non-combatants, it was unparalleled. Volume II, which covers the overseas base construction, is also available.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume II is 556 pages and contains over 200 illustrations, maps and photographs. It covers the construction of 100's of overseas bases and facilities from Iwo Jima to Normandy and beyond. The building of advance bases overseas enabled our armed forces to carry the war to the enemy's home waters, by sea and air, and to conquer him on his own soil. When the Navy needed men who not only could build but also could take up arms and defend themselves and their installations, the Navy organized the famous Seabees - construction workers, officered by construction experts and trained in combat methods - whose motto "Can do" was brilliantly proven in action. These accomplishments are recounted as factually and as comprehensively as possible.

Download or read book Hitler s Naval Bases written by Jak P. Mallmann Showell and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2017-01-21 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hitler's U-boats and his dreaded pocket battleships such as Bismarck and Tirpitz - Churchill dubbed the latter as 'The Beast' - continue to fascinate an ever-growing interest in the Second World War. Despite a numerical disadvantage when compared the Royal Navy, Hitler's U-boats wrecked havoc in the Atlantic against vulnerable convoys and the doomed Bismarck took on the might of Britain's battleships in a mighty clash of the titans. Hitler's Naval Bases, a work of love that took the author over forty years to research and write, is the most comprehensive and dedicated book on the subject matter. A world's first, it covers bases in remarkable detail from the smallest and unmanned locations to the largest dedicated bases in Lorient, Kiel and Wilhemshaven. The book covers the different types of naval base from isolated and forgotten bases, escape and survival bases, to the extremities of the main naval bases. The functions and various departments - artillery, ship construction to dockyard medical service - are explained as are North Sea naval bases in Emden, The Weser Ports and Cuxhaven, Baltic ports, the major bases that never were ('The Lobster's Claw on Heligoland') to France, Asia and German colonies, including re-fuelling in Spain and bases located in Russia and in the 'Heart of England'. Also covered are naval artillery and naval infantry as well as the anatomy of coastal artillery batteries, the shipping yards and even rules for living in such conditions. A most lavish and phenomenal book, it is beautifully illustrated with over 200 unpublished photographs complemented with thousands of unique interviews with veterans during the war as well as survivors. A labour of love, Hitler's Naval Bases is written by a world's leading authoritarian figure and is an essential book for those interested in the armed forces of the Third Reich.
