Imperial Japanese Navy Page
A truly exceptional review of the Japanese Navy during World War II. From battleships to Kamikaze; photos, maps, little known facts and mysteries. Fascinating.

uboat.net
What can I say about this premier site. If your interested in history and in particular, Naval history, this is the place to go. Everything and anything you've ever wanted to know about uboats can be found here. Guğmundur Helgason has created a wonderful walk through the past. I give this site four stars, it's one of my favorites.

Gary's pages are entertaining, fun and informative. I've visited with Gary many times in the past and plan on visiting again often.
