Six Nifty - great stuff. I have not consulted Schrader's book nor Gauker & Blood summaries (not aware of these).

Charles Schrader's book (one of the Leavenworth Papers) has been long out of print, but the U.S. Army has put the entire publication online, free of charge:
http://www-cgsc.army.mil/carl/resour...er/shrader.asp
Eleanor Gauker & Christopher Blood's report is available from NTIS. The title is Amicicide at Sea: Friendly Fire Incidents During World War II Naval Operations. - Final rept. Dec 92-Dec 93. Naval Health Research Center, San Diego, CA.
If you cannot find this at a public library, then order a copy from:

In addition, the following booklet might be of interest and you should be able to find it online or at a library:
Who Goes There : Friend or Foe. Washington, DC : Office of Technology Assessment, Congress of the U.S. : [Supt. of Docs., U.S. G.P.O., distributor, 1993]. ISBN: 0160418143
