		As a young Lt (jg.), Ed Mack was gunnery officer aboard a very unusual tanker, the SS GULF DAWN, an old, beat up tanker of the Gulf Oil Company - or so she was meant to appear.
		That's because another crew was waiting on board, hidden until the proper moment, to spring to the guns and to the controls, bringing the ship back to life as a submarine killer.
		SS GULF DAWN/USS BIG HORN never was attacked by a U-Boat and so never was really used in her designed capacity.
