Начало книги

This book would not have been possible without the valuable input provided by veterans of Israel’s submarine force, including one of its retired senior officers. I quickly learned that these individuals are exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable, precise and professional, and heroic yet humble. Getting to know them was a rare privilege, a source of inspiration, and one of the most enjoyable aspects of authoring this book. Their patience and good humor in answering my countless questions, even as they artfully dodged anything that might compromise national security, is immensely appreciated. As much as I wanted to acknowledge them individually, they insisted on absolute anonymity, and therefore must remain unnamed. I am also indebted to all of the family members and friends who took the time to review my manuscript and share their feedback with me: Eugie, Daniel, Guy, Chris, Bill, Adam, Cookie, Natasha, Steve, Lateesha, Mike, Victoria, Ante, Roy, Jo, Koichi, and Ofer.
