Typhoon 1944

Clagett, John
Pretty good story of a new quartermaster weathering a huge storm on a destroyer during World War II. Written in 1970, the author drops the N-bomb in the subplot involving the heroic efforts by tne Negro CPO mess guy to save the ship during the big blow. A Withdrawn book.

Words I Had To Look Up:

Pelorus -- A fixed compass card on which bearings relative to a ship's heading are taken.
