A new Yakima Chapter is in process of being formed by Jim Foote , District 9 Commander. If you have any Submarine Shipmates in the Yakima Valley area let Jim know who they are so they can be informed. The Fourth War Patrol of USS Darter embraces one of the most outstanding contributions by submarines to the ultimate defeat of the Japanese Navy. Filled with riveting accounts of submariners at war, this work includes action, adventure, humor, heartwarming and personal accounts of the brave men who served on Dace's eight and Darter's four war patrols. In 1944, pennants were added to the brooms to indicate the number of kills.
