The Fleet Type Submarine Online (1946)

Folks, 
The Fleet Type Submarine, Navpers 16160, is the first in a series of submarine training manuals that was completed just after WW II. The series describes the peak of WW II US submarine technology. 

In this online version of the manual we have attempted to keep the flavor of the original layout while taking advantage of the Web's universal accessibility. Different browsers and fonts will cause the text to move, but the text will remain roughly where it is in the original manual. In addition to errors we have attempted to preserve from the original (for example, it was H.L. Hunley, not CS Huntley), this text was captured by a combination of optical character recognition and human typist. Each method creates errors that are compounded while encoding for the Web. Please report any typos, or particularly annoying layout issues for correction. 

Our thanks to Shelly Shelstad for permitting us to use images he has scanned, particularly the oversized images that were meticulously pieced together.  Thanks also to Bonnie Steigler for her typing services, and IKON Office Solutions for scanning services.
