Gallery. Written by a rear-admiral, Gallery has had a distinguished naval career since his appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy in 1917. His most remarkable exploit is related in this book. He commanded the U.S. Navy Task Group 22-3, a submarine hunter-killer group from his flagship, the carrier Guadalcanal. Off the coast of Africa they sighted and captured the U-505, which then had to be towed 1,700 miles back to America. As a prize the U-505 was of inestimable value to the Allies - yielding, among other things, the secret of the radio code used by the Germans in directing their U-boat operations.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39862126968919,"sku":"7865164","price":6.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/products\/orig_243493_jpg.jpg?v=1659010971","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/we-captured-a-u-boat-by-daniel-v-gallery","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
