New Moon Rising is a work of historical fiction, based upon many events in the Persian Gulf during the months prior to and following the fall of Reza Shah Pahlav in 1979. The names of the characters in the story are fictitious, but represent many of the Navy men I sailed with aboard USS LaSalle (AGF-3) from 1978 to 1980.
