Submarine Books / Movies for Your Enjoyment

Here is a short list of some of the best Submarine books and movies.  Certainly no obligation to read these (can't promise bonus points with the Admiral, I'm afraid), but if you're interested in NUPOC you will likely find these to be both enjoyable and informative.  This is not a comprehensive list, but it includes my personal favorites.

Books:
1. Thunder Below - USS Barb Revolutionizes Submarine Warfare in WW2, by Eugene Fluckey
2. Blind Man's Bluff - The Untold Story of American Submarine Espionage
3. Wahoo - The Patrols of America's Most Famous WW2 Submarine, by Dick O'Kane
4. Clear the Bridge - The War Stories of the USS Tang, by Dick O'Kane
5. Turn the Ship Around - A True Story of Turning Followers Into Leaders, by L. David Marquet
6. Submarine - A Guided Tour Inside a US Nuclear Warship, by Tom Clancy
7. Das Boot by Lothar-Günther Buchheim
8. Run Silent Run Deep by Edward L. Beach

Movies:
1. Das Boot (You MUST watch it in German with English subtitles.  If you watch it with English audio you will ruin it.)
2. Hunt for Red October
3. Crimson Tide
