US Pacific Fleet Subs   

of World War II

Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, US submarines made the hazardous journey to the shipping lanes off the coast of Japan, only to have their torpedoes bounce harmlessly off the sides of enemy ships without exploding.  Only after two years of bureaucratic wrangling was the “Silent Service” finally supplied with reliable torpedoes that would lead to the virtual elimination of Japanese shipping.
