In his review, Michael describes ‘Running Deep’ as;
‘partly an essay on the importance of service to one’s country, but also
maintaining real connections with one’s loved ones while serving, and perhaps most of all,
a clear statement on why submarines are critical to ensuring Australia’s present and future security as we head into the third decade of the 21st century.’
Fremantle Shipping News is an online magazine all about Freo.
