Return to OUR SUBMARINE HISTORY
Sid Note:
The internet is much like one of those signboards from decades ago. The kind before neon tubing when hundreds of individual incandescent light bulbs made up the sign. Some bulbs eventually burned out. So it is with "stuff on the net".
 
With that in mind I frequently download and attempt to save information that may someday just burn out and disappear.
 
Here are some copies I saved of this very informative series. (After all, It is OUR history)
 
I have not included all articles among my copies. The few omitted were mainly of internal interest only to the company or union personnel.
