Dogs of War

Pearl Harbor, 1942: Lieutenant Junior Grade Douglas Clayton, a man who studied literature, is assigned as the engineering officer aboard a submarine; a bad luck submarine that recently sank while tied up at the pier.

     While on patrol in the South China Sea, the captain and executive officer get sick and die. Clayton suspects the next highest-ranking officer, Lieutenant Arbogast, of murder. Is it mutiny to support Lieutenant Arbogast when he takes command of the submarine? Or, is it mutiny to have him arrested?
