Book Excerpt for the Day

    Perry paced the control bridge of his submarine as it raced under the ice.  No one spoke.  The crew knew the urgency of their mission, the risk.  The plan was almost impossible to fathom.  He knew that even if he succeeded, it could cost him his captain’s bars.  He didn’t care.  He knew right from wrong, blind duty from personal responsibility.  Still another question nagged: Did he know bravery from simple stupidity?
