Built of plywood and measuring 115 feet long, powered by four
supercharged petrol engines and armed to the teeth with heavy
weapons, the 'D' Class Motor Gun Boats (MGBs) and Motor Torpedo
Boats (MTBs) were better known as Dog Boats and played havoc with
enemy shipping in home and foreign waters. During three years of
war they engaged the enemy on more than 350 occasions, sinking and
damaging many ships. Dog Boats at War is the authoritative account
of operations by the Royal Navy's 'D' Class MGBs and MTBs in the
Second World War in Home, Mediterranean and Norwegian waters. As
well as drawing on official records - both British and German - the
author has contacted several hundred Dog Boat veterans whose eye
witness accounts add drama to the unfolding story.
