Hardcover. After graduation from the Naval Academy in 1940, Burke served in the battleships West Virginia (BB-48) and North Carolina (BB-55); he was in the first crew of The Showboat. After Submarine School he served combat duty in the Flying Fish (SS-229) and after the war commanded the Guardfish (SS-217). Subsequent duty was in the submarine tender Howard W. Gilmore (AS-16), in the Bureau of Naval Personnel, and as executive officer of the Dogfish (SS-350). He commanded the submarine Sablefish (SS-303), served in the presidential yacht Williamsburg (AGC-369) until she was decommissioned in 1955, and commanded the destroyer Harold J. Ellison (DD-864). Later duties were on the staff of Commander in Chief Atlantic Fleet, as a student at the Naval War College, and as Commander Submarine Division 63 during Regulus missile trials. In the 1960s he was executive officer of the Naval Academys Bancroft Hall and commanded the attack transport Fremont (APA-44) and Amphibious Squadron Six. After duty in the Navy Plans Branch in OpNav he was Commander Amphibious Group Three and later Commander Amphibious Group One in the Western Pacific.
