Summary

From conducting top-secret missions to making Australian submarine history, Commodore Peter Scott depicts what it takes to be a Submariner.

Over a decorated 34-year career, Commodore Scott served in 10 submarines, passed the most demanding military command course in the world and served as the Head of Profession of the Submarine Arm of the Royal Australian Navy.

During that time his character was forged by the challenges of naval service, success and failure as a leader, catastrophic onboard disasters while dived, and life-threatening traumas. Along the way, he also endured personal battles with self-doubt, addiction, depression and anxiety.

In this honest and enlightening tale, he shares his quest for self acceptance, and for the courage, commitment and compassion to lead the warriors of Australia's Silent Service.

‘Peace and war for a submariner are much the same. Service with our Navy's main strike weapon is a mystery for most Australians. If we are to comprehend the terms of our survival, we must know. This beautifully written memoir is our key. It needs a wider audience.' The Honourable Kim Beazley AC

‘… an absorbing, often searing account of the life of a submariner and a Navy leader. Peter's story chronicles the modern life of our critical strategic deterrent–the RAN's submarine arm.' General the Honourable Sir Peter Cosgrove AK AC (Mil) CVO MC (Retd)

‘Personal and full of integrity, a great account of the ups and downs of serving Australia as an outstanding submariner.' Air Chief Marshal Sir Angus Houston AK, AFC (Retd)
