| Entry Text: | HERZ, Norman. Operation Alacrity: The Azores and the War in the Atlantic. [xvii], 368p., bibliog., index. Annapolis; Naval Institute press, 2004. ISBN: 1591143640.
A very American view of the little known operation to take control of the islands in late 1943. The author participated as an engineering corporal in the Seabees at that time and has tracked down the official sources to produce a creditable work on an episode of bickering and rivalry. |
