Description
The Polaris nuclear powered submarine was the largest ever built. Their purpose was to provide a powerful force that would serve as a deterrent to a nuclear attack upon the United States. Because these ships would be so important to our defense, it was decided to name them after well-known figures in American history who had won and defended our freedom. The men for whom these submarines were named are the subject of this book.
