USSVI Creed: "To perpetuate the memory of our shipmates
who gave their lives in the pursuit of duties while serving their country. That their dedication,
deeds and supreme sacrifice be a constant source of motivation toward greater accomplishments.
Pledge loyalty and patriotism to the United States Government."
That's our CREED above, but it's not who we
are: We are United States Submarine Sailors! We were, and are, members of
the elite fighting force of the United States Navy. We are all QUALIFIED IN
SUBMARINES.
Included are submariners from the very early boats: S, R or earlier:
WWII boats; post-war GUPPY boats and FBM and Fast Attack submariners. All Qualified in
Submarines - from E2 to 4 Stars. Retired, short timer, or active duty - it makes no
difference.
If you are Qualified in Submarines we want you in United States
Submarine Veterans Inc. We have 100+ local Bases (chapters) from Pearl Harbor to Portsmouth,
NH and two Internet bases. Our members are from every state in the Union. In addition to the
regional and district meetings throughout the year we also hold a National Convention in a
different city every year.
If you want to learn submarine history from the people who wrote it,
tell or hear sea stories from Pre-WWII, WWII, Korea, VN, Cold War or right now, USSVI is the
place to do it. If you want to find shipmates, plan or attend a boat reunion, eat, drink, or
just share a common bond that never goes away, USSVI is the place.
If you are active duty and wonder how things used to be, or how a
problem used to be solved, a USSVI meeting is where you can ask. Want to ask a question only
COMSUBPAC/COMSUBLANT can answer? There are many members of both staffs that are
members.
