Jack Tucker enlisted in the Navy in 1942 at age 17, stationed on SC-505 (a “submarine chaser”) and later various submarines. His diary, including notes on his wartime experiences as well as sketches in his hand, features a unique cover made from aluminum salvaged from a downed Japanese plane.

In less than three weeks, this journal will be on display in our upcoming exhibit Road to Tokyo, which tells the stories of the Pacific Theater beginning December 12.
