During WW II the Command and General Staff Colleges primary mission
was to train large numbers of captains and majors to be staff
officers in battalions, brigades, divisions, and corps. To that
end, the Army provided copies of documents produced by field units
to the College. Operations orders, after action reports,
intelligence analyses, logistics appraisals, and similar documents
are in the Combined Arms Research Library documents collection. The
primary focus was documenting operations at the tactical and
operational levels of warfare. This is one of those documents.

U.S. Navy personnel who work on submarines are in an enclosed and
isolated environment for days or weeks at a time when at sea.
Unlike a typical work environment, they are potentially exposed to
air contaminants 24 hours a day. To protect workers from potential
adverse health effects due to those conditions, the U.S. Navy has
established exposure guidance levels for a number of contaminants.
The Navy asked a subcommittee of the National Research Council
(NRC) to review, and develop when necessary, exposure guidance
levels for 10 contaminants. Overall, the subcommittee found the
values proposed by the Navy to be suitable for protecting human
health. For a few chemicals, the committee proposed levels that
were lower than those proposed by the Navy. In conducting its
evaluation, the subcommittee found that there is little exposure
data available on the submarine environment and echoed a previous
recommendation from an earlier NRC report to conduct monitoring
that would provide a complete analysis of submarine air and data on
exposure of personnel to contaminants. Table of Contents Front

The United States Navy operated long range fleet submarines in the
Pacific during World War II in what has often been referred to as a
'forgotten' campaign. In fact the operations of these submarines in
the Pacific contributed greatly to the war against Japan, depriving
her of much needed supplies as well as curtailing troop movements
and reinforcements during the 'island war.'This book details the
histories of all US submarine losses during the Second World War
together with a report of all operational cruises carried out by
each vessel. Each submarine is described from the first to the last
war patrol, and actions and sinkings are included. There is also a
list of all Medal of Honour recipients, and a crew list of men
lost.This is an important book to anyone studying naval warfare in
the Pacific during World War II, and serves as the basis for
further study of the submarine campaign carried out by the US Navy
in particular. Illustrated with a number of photographs of
personnel and vessels, it will serve as a first class introduction
to the subject.
U.S. Navy personnel who work on submarines are in an enclosed and
isolated environment for days or weeks at a time when at sea. To
protect workers from potential adverse health effects due to those
conditions, the U.S. Navy has established exposure guidance levels
for a number of contaminants. In this latest report in a series,
the Navy asked the National Research Council (NRC) to review, and
develop when necessary, exposure guidance levels for 11
contaminants. The report recommends exposure levels for hydrogen
that are lower than current Navy guidelines. For all other
contaminants (except for two for which there are insufficient
data), recommended levels are similar to or slightly higher than
those proposed by the Navy. The report finds that, overall, there
is very little exposure data available on the submarine environment
and echoes recommendations from earlier NRC reports to expand
exposure monitoring in submarines. Table of Contents Front Matter
