Начало книги

Ex nihilo nihil fit. For this book I owe thanks to Keith Adams, Barbara Breeden, Kyung “KC” Choi, Dick Enderly, Sean Gillespie, Adam Goldberger, Young P. Hong, Bill Hunteman, Chong Su Lim, Bill McQuade, Charles L. Owens, Patti Patterson, Laura Plattner, Warren L. Potts, Daniela Rapp, Sally Richardson, Matt Shear, James P. “Phil” Wisecup, and many others who preferred anonymity. Thanks also to the Eastern Shore Public Library; the Joint Staff College Library; Commander, Naval Surface Forces Atlantic; the Maritime Museum of San Diego; the Nimitz Library at the U.S. Naval Academy; Commander, Naval Forces Korea; and the officers and crew of ROKS Chung Nam, my shipmates some years ago, who bear little or no resemblance to their fictional counterparts created here — though we did go through two typhoons together, that much is true. My most grateful thanks to George Witte, editor of long standing; and to Lenore Hart, best friend and reality check.
