The Famed Green Dragons: The Four Stack APDs" is a hardcover book published by Turner Publishing Company in 1998.
Here's some information about it:
Subject: The book details the history of the US Navy's flush-deck fast transports (APDs) in World War II. These ships, nicknamed "Green Dragons" due to their camouflage, were converted destroyers that served as high-speed troop transports, particularly for Marine Raiders.
Author: The book was written by a retired Chief Warrant Officer who served on one of these APDs and was the Secretary of the Four Stack APD Veterans Association. This suggests an insider's perspective and passion for the subject matter.
Content:
The book covers the history of the APDs and their role in WWII operations.
It includes individual ship histories, "Sea Stories" from APD sailors, a list of APD sailors killed in action, and veterans' biographies.
It also contains photos of the ships and sailors, maps, and other relevant information.
