\u201cThe Komar Incident\u201d will place the crew of the USS Whitefish (SS-432) between a rock and a hard place. After an incident involving Cuban patrol boats, the Whitefish is ordered back to base by the US Navy. Captain Gus Haynes and his crew will not go quietly while a Soviet Foxtrot submarine is on the loose in the Florida Straits–behind the blockade! This is all framed within the context of the Cuban Missile Crisis. This is a fictitious event, but tenser by the minute given the greater political theater of October 1962. There were four Foxtrots the Navy prosecuted during the blockade of Cuba. There was a fifth already in the Caribbean, south of Cuba, but it retired home under tow as a result of an engineering casualty.What if it didn\u2019t?<\/p>\n
