Tales from a Tin Can : The USS Dale from Pearl Harbor to Tokyo Bay

In the words of those who manned her, the destroyer USS "Dale"'s war comes vividly to life in this first oral history of a combat ship from World War II's start to finish.

From carrier raids on Midway, Guadalcanal, and the Solomons to the bombarding of Saipan and Guam in the capture of the Marianas, from the Aleutians in the far north to strikes on Tokyo and Kobe, "Tales from a Tin Can" re-creates the action aboard the "Dale" and conveys as never before the true grit of wartime on a destroyer.
