The Patrol Papers was an unofficial newsletter produced by the U.S. Navy during World War II, specifically for the crews of submarines operating in the Pacific. This publication, often compiled and written by submariners themselves, served as a morale booster and a way to keep the crews connected and informed about both their fellow submariners' exploits and the broader progress of the war. Featuring stories of successful patrols, personal anecdotes, and sometimes humorous accounts from the submarines' perilous missions, the Patrol Papers became a symbol of camaraderie and resilience. It also highlighted the key role that submarines played in disrupting Japanese supply lines and striking at the heart of the enemy?s naval power. Through these pages, submariners could share their experiences and maintain a sense of unity despite the dangers they faced beneath the Pacific waves.
