In Enemy Waters

S2, E1: USS Silversides and its swashbuckling skipper, Creed Burlingame, saw their first action in the Pacific in May 1942. More than a dozen patrols later, the sub now rests in Muskegon, Michigan as a museum, an ongoing testament to its extraordinary history. Witness one of Silversides’ most dramatic missions: aiding Marines in Guadalcanal by keeping Japanese reinforcements from reaching the island. It’s an assignment fraught with depth charge attacks and aerial bombardments that nearly ended the mission and its crew.
