Summary The complete story of Operation Barney, the daring plot to penetrate the dense minefields protecting the Sea of Japan during World War II. The mission hinged on a new, experimental sonar system that would, with luck, guide the nine American submarines, called Hellcats, safely past the mines and into open sea.
