The sea takes no prisoners : stories from the men & ships of the Royal Navy in the Second World War / "The voices of over 125 Royal Navy men and women recount their days of service to Britain and the world during the 1939-1945 war at sea. The stories selected from the audio archive of the Imperial War Museum cover as wide a range as possible of wartime experiences that include: life before the war, motivations for enlisting, training and reporting for sea duty. Accounts of fear, anger and terror are intertwined with others that concern love, humor and fun. Shipboard life is remembered as ranging from hectic to monotonous, both inspiring and frustrating and dangerous, yet also secure. The book's chapters accompany the men and their ships from great oceans to unknown backwaters as they engage, year by year, in the war's naval battles and campaigns, the majority of which are represented. There is a chapter dedicated to the wartime contributions of the WRNS, another chapter dedicated to the RN?s Boy Seamen and an epilogue that tells about the post-war fate of some of the ships and men featured in the book."--Provided by the publisher. 2018. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 355.124(42)"1939/1945"

Royal Navy Type 45 destroyer manual : an insight into operating and maintaining the Royal Navy's largest "The Type 45 Destroyer Manual is an officially licensed Royal Navy product and the Type 45 the first modern warship to receive the Haynes Manual treatment. Author Jonathan Gates, a member of the design team for the Type 45, was given unique access to the Type 45 'Daring' class by the Royal Navy enabling him to produce this unique and detailed insight into the design, construction, maintenance and operation of this awesome fighting vessel. On 23 July 2009 HMS Daring was commissioned into service with the Royal Navy as the first of a class of powerful Type 45 anti-air warfare (AAW) destroyers. These complex warships incorporate several major advances in naval technology and are recognised as the most capable AAW vessels in the world. They will form the mainstay of the Royal Navy's fleet for the next three decades. The six Type 45 destroyers represent a substantial enhancement in surface warfare capability and flexibility. They embody much innovative equipment and significant engineering advances over the previous generation of warships. In particular, two notable primary systems were developed specifically for the Type 45 destroyers: a radical Integrated Electric Propulsion System (IEPS) and Sea Viper, a cutting-edge AAW system. Both of these revolutionary systems contribute to the superlative performance of the Type 45 destroyers. In many ways the Type 45 destroyers are a new departure for the Royal Navy. For instance, there is a high degree of automation enabling these large warships to be efficiently operated by a ship's staff that is two-thirds smaller than that of its predecessors. They are also the first Royal Navy warships to be specifically designed to accommodate a ship's complement of both men and women."--Provided by the publisher. 2014. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 623.823.1(42)
