wfzimmerman's review: "A fascinating subject to anyone interested in WWII naval history. The Italian frogmen were among the most effective "special forces" of all time, being single-handedly responsible for sinking or severely damaging several warships. I often wonder if the US Navy might be more vulnerable than it should be to an attack by frogmen with under-the-keel mines."
