Summary
"Phil Norris chronicles his service as a Reactor Plant Supervisor aboard 5 nuclear submarines during the Cold War in this candid and intriguing autobiography. Phil focuses on his personal challenges and triumphs during his storied career in the nuclear submarine service. The name 'Family Gram' refers to the 40 word messages that submarine sailors could receive from their family while they were on patrol. Phil writes this book as a collective reply to those Family Grams."--Dust jacket.
