Description: Those Truculent Poopies by Hollie Barnett Rare vintage paperback in good condition (clean pages, tight binding, minimal cover wear), from a smoke-free home. Shipping anywhere in the United States via USPS. Synopsis from back cover: Moments after receiving Horace's message, Wampler's radioman reported a target, dead in the water. Wee WIllie knew what it was. Despite the seriousness of the situation and it being his first command, his orders were concise, without the usual nervousness of a new commanders. He gave the order to attack. "Target dead ahead," the radioman reported. "Three miles...two...one...." Wampler's blimb had an advantage over Horace's. It had a searchlight and he ordered it turned on. "There she is! Diving! Ready! Bomb's away!" Down went the string; all three depth charges, one after the other. Karumph! Karumph! Karumph! The blasts reverberated throughout the airship, shaking and twisting it as if it were a toy. "Come about! Keep the light on where he went down." Wampler and the others saw the foam churned up by the explosions, the sub's bow, sticking skyward, at a 45-degree angle. They saw it level off, surface. They saw the sailors rush to gun mounts. Wampler blurted, "Oh no! Not again."
