My gramps got transferred to the spin axe right before the gray backs last deployment. Lost a lot friends and was always sad about it. I wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for that transfer.
So which submarine became the uss grayback ? Because my dad served on one in Vietnam……
Thank you RIP brave mariners
The good book said, at the final judgment, the sea will give up its dead. May we look forward to that day!
I'll tell you what. I am about to retire, and am an ex USAF captain, engineer, and more, who in all my later civilian jobs worked on a lot of Navy projects, worked at Electric Boat on several submarine projects, etc. I have done some sea duty as part of my assignment, used the Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster Ship out of Cape Canaveral, etc. I am going to look into see how to volunteer to help this Lost 52 project.
"Eternal Patrol". Somber words that could not be expressed any better. RIP
Men like those fought for a unified country. The country produced leaders like Truman, FDR and JFK. Now look at us. We have no borders. The government has no use for people following the immigration process. Many people who served in the war, went on to become police officers. The respect for police by citizens has been eroded to the point of defunding police. Now we have a President who isn't even mental fit and may let Congress defund cops whatever else socialism brings upon us.
Very nicely done. Wonderful service healing hearts and honoring heros.
Amazing.. cant believe how many enemy target they took out. RIP
My dads cousin went down on the Scamp.
To the Crews who ran slient run deep
that are still on eternal patrol. To Fair Winds and Following Seas.
You are not Forgotten
Rest in peace!
They went down with Honor….Against a dishonorable foe…R.I.P. Grey
This touching because it brings closure
Impressive!!!
I lost an Uncle on the USS Trigger. My older brother is named for him. USS Trigger disappeared March 26 1945 presumably after being bombed and depth charged..
Now I wish they'd look after the USS Grolwer (SS-215), lost just west of Luzon.
Is this a gato class cubmarine???
They should specify the hull number, as well. There were two USS Graybacks, SS208 & SSG574.
Thank you to the sailors of USS Greyback and their families for their sacrifice.
BZ!

WW II was my first war, and my Dad was in it. He was wounded but he survived "all the Pacific war garden spots" as a merchant mariner on a C 3 cargo ship.and we were lucky,; he came home to us. This was the cost of freedom. I thank those great warriors who did not get to come home and pray for peace for their families that were left behind when they fought for tour freedom.. God bless them, their families and the USA that they loved so much. " Sail on, sail on, sail on….."
I only watched this abc news story ,because of the lost sub.. but would never watch a Fake news outlet such as abc.
