History of the development of the Submarine Memorials website

This page laid down March 07, 1998 and commissioned August 15, 1998 from the shipyards of USSVI members (Sid Harrison(NY) and Ron Martini(WY)) and is for public knowledge and is to remain free. We hope you can visit some of the sites we have brought onto the Net and tell others of them. We don't want anyone to ever forget. We hope this page will never be done and that it remain on "sea trials" forever.
