a| This notebook covers John W. Graham's operational training as a naval intelligence officer stationed on the Eastern Sea Frontier, 5th Naval District (Virginia and North Carolina) during World War II. Graham includes notes regarding navigation, types of ships, chains of command, anti-submarine warfare techniques, mines and mine sweeping, convoys, the coast watch system, and responsibilities of staff and line officers. Other topics include the jurisdictions of the various armed force branches, the role and morale of civilian coast watchers, and submarine spotting. Graham describes implementation of the Coastal Convoy System and the resulting decrease in shipping losses, distribution of naval districts worldwide, and the number designation system for patrol groups and task forces. Ship tonnage, use of commercial fishing vessels, chart usage, and course adjustments are also discussed. There are numerous and explicit notes on procedures and techniques along with references to "Chapman," likely referring to Charles Frederic Chapman's Piloting, Seamanship, and Small Boat Handling, New York, 1922.
