Default Mission Complete - Yet ANOTHER hijacked nuclear sub :-(

Previous Nuclear Submarine Commanding Officer Becomes Author

Captain L.S. Wigley, USN (Retired) has written his first novel "Mission Complete" which has been published by Publish America. The novel is fiction but could be a true story. The story revolves around terrorist takeover of a U.S. nuclear attack submarine.

(PRWEB) October 23, 2005 -- Commander Bruce Stewart, the commanding officer of the USS Jackfish (SSN945), attends a highly classified conference where it is revealed that an ultimatum was delivered to the President of the United States from a Soviet/Cuban terrorist group demanding a ransom of money plus the disarmament of the United States strategic nuclear weapons arsenal. The ultimatum would be met or the terrorist would launch nuclear cruise missiles from the pirated United States nuclear submarine Tigerfish in five days, Christmas Eve. The missiles would annihilate the cities of Norfolk, Washington, New York, and Groton, Connecticuit.

The Tigerfish had been pirated while at anchor off Piraeus, Greece, the victim of a well executed plan by an integrated Soviet/Cuban team. The submarine was still operated by its American crew who were at present receiving torture and brutality under the guns of the Soviet and Cuban guards.

The options available to the President are to conduct a nuclear preemptive first strike, to honoe the ultimatum, or to dispatch Commander Stewart to seek out and sink the Tigerfish.

The President gambles at his best option- Stewart and the Jackfish.

Captain Wigley, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, spent twenty-nine years on active duty with most of that time associated with nuclear submarines, including command of a nuclear attack submarine for over four years, command of the submarine repair ship in the Holy Loch, Scotland, and command of the construction and subsequent operation of the Trident Submarine Base in Bangor, Washington. This background provided him the knowledge and operational experience to capture all the details necessary to write a best seller.
