{"product_id":"leaving-port-captain-charles-gallagher-usnr-ret-9781977230287","title":"Leaving Port: The Cold War At Sea","description":"In 1961, Charles Gallagher graduated from the Naval Academy at the age of 20. Little did he know that after his first ship completed a Mediterranean cruise, it would be the first ship to leave port under emergency Top Secret orders for a mission that turned out to be the Cuban Missile Crisis . . . and that he would be part of an unfolding, thrilling, terrifying scenario that involved forcing a Russian submarine to surface. And that amazing story is only one of the remarkable exploits described in this gripping memoir. Follow Charles as he searches for a lost hydrogen bomb, obeys surprise orders to transfer to a US submarine in the middle of the Atlantic, accepts an assignment to be embedded in a Vietnamese River Assault Group, and more. Although Captain Gallagher left active duty in 1970, his memories of service are as vivid and compelling as a Tom Clancy novel-and better yet, every word is true\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Captain Charles Gallagher Usnr (Ret ).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1977230288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781977230287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Outskirts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d","brand":"Captain Charles Gallagher Usnr (Ret ).","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44077171015935,"sku":"9781977230287","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f773e2db-8bf2-486c-97b3-593811f72062.jpg?v=1685468623","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/leaving-port-captain-charles-gallagher-usnr-ret-9781977230287","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
