At last count, nearly 2,400 people can claim that their lives were
saved by a U.S. submarine during World War II. Of that number, 523
Allied aviators could claim that distinction after crashing their
aircraft into the sea and being saved by a submarine operating in
the "Lifeguard League." The remaining number were a collection of
other military and civilian personnel, each with a story to tell
and now able to tell their grand-children. Some of those rescued
went on to retire as senior military officers including U.S. Navy
Admirals, some back to missionary work, some to manage large
companies in later years, some to philanthropic endeavors to pay
everyone back for saving their lives. Appendix A is an
intensely-researched index of nearly 2,200 names of those saved.
