'''''No Banners, No Bugles''''' (New York: Dodd, Mead & Company, 1949) is a book by [[Edward Ellsberg]] describing his activities as Principal Salvage Officer for [[Operation Torch]] during [[World War II]].

Like his book ''[[Under the Red Sea Sun]]'' about salvage work in [[Massawa]] earlier in the war, this book describes daring adventures and monumental accomplishments. It also describes cases where red tape, incompetence, and cowardice caused valuable ships to be lost.
