<p>A chronicle of experiences of 48 men (U.S. Sailors, Frogmen, British Royal Marines) aboard the USS Barr DE576/APD39 during world War II. The Barr earned three battle stars: Battles of the Atlantic, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. She served in the Atlantic and was torpedoed at the time the Block Island was sunk. The Barr was then converted to an APD for service in the Pacific. She carried UDT#13 into Iwo Jima and Okinawa for pre-invasion operations to open the beaches for the marines. She was with the Missouri when the peace was signed, evacuated POW's from Japan, and participated in the US Strategic Bomb survey in Nagasaki.</p>
