'Tin Can': An Incomplete History of a 20th Century Destroyer
'Tin Can': An Incomplete History of a 20th Century Destroyer

by Gilbert Beyer

This book is more of a scrapbook than it is a history. The idea for it came into being while sitting around over beers with a group of shipmates at a reunion of former Fiske sailors. The late Tom Clancy once wrote, "If it isn't written down it never happened." I started collecting these stories in 2010 and got the last one received into this edition. This is probably the last in the series. Too many of the people involved have passed, some never having told their stories. Today is a different world than it was after World War II and before 9/11 but we would do history an injustice if we failed to recognize its passing.
