I responded to your submarine books but I can't find it so I'll try again.  Two books you can but tell the story about the USS Grunion.  The Grunion was sunk in the Bering sea July 30th, 1942, all hands lost. The titles of the books are:  " Fatal Dive" and "We Remember  Them: A Biographical Supplement for Fatal Dive".

I HAVE A BOOK CALLED, U.S. SUBMARINE LOSSES PUBLISHED IN 1948.  WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK A LITTLE SPECIAL IS MY MOTHER WROTE ON THE BACK THAT IT WAS DEDICATED TO MY THE MEMORY OF MY DAD WHO WAS ON THE USS GRUNION.  I WOULD LIKE TO DONATE THIS TO A MUSEUM. ANY IDEAS ON WHAT MUSEUM WOULD NOT HAVE THIS BOOK AND WOULD LIKE THIS BOOK?
