Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. Reprint Edition, First Printing Thus. xi, [1], 244 pages Illustrations. Oversize book, measuring 10 inches by 8 inches. Foreword by Charles R. ("Cal") Calhoun, Captain, U.S. Navy (Ret.).

First and foremost, according to the author, this is the history of USS Lang (DD-399). Certainly each man that served on this destroyer's decks was a critical part of the life she exhibited. But it was Lang that was the common bond to the men who served her. She brought them home, through one of the must turbulent times in recorded modern history. The massive challenge of both the Atlantic and Pacific campaigns assured a massive team effort in procuring the victory. And for this reason, a good portion of the credit for Lang's success must be attributed to the expertise of a great number of other ships' officers and crews, pilots and support crews of the Navy, Marines, and Army, and a superior leadership. They called her the "Lucky Lang." Commissioned 30 March 1939, she ranged from Nova Scotia to the Caribbean, from Scotland to the Mediterranean, before traversing the Panama Canal to engage the enemy in the Pacific at Guadalcanal, New Georgia, Kwajalein, Saipan, Leyte, and Okinawa. The Lang wreaked havoc along the "Tokyo Express" route and helped decimate Japanese air power. Yet, though heavily involved in nearly every major campaign of the war in the Pacific, she survived it all with hardly a scratch, and not one of her roster received the slightest enemy-inflicted wound. Over such an extended time and equal number of actions, no other U.S. Naval warship could boast such a record. Even the sum of her hull number's digits (399) adds up to 21, a lucky number to be sure. This is the story, the complete history of the USS Lang as told by the ship's official biographer, himself the fortunate son of a former Lang sailor.
