Lost Submariner Family Networks (original) (raw)

In addition to presenting information on the submariners themselves, we maintain family contact information for the relatives of the men we seek to honor. This information is kept private and confidential, and is used only in the event that developments concerning the lost vessels occur.

Since 2005, the wrecks of eleven lost U.S. Navy World War II submarines whose locations had not previously been known have been found, and our database has been instrumental in informing the families of the final resting place of their loved ones. Please contact us if you would like to be included in our lost submariner family network.

If you would like to submit a photo of a man who was lost on duty while serving in the U.S. Submarine Force, or have some information that you would like to contribute, please click on this link: How to Submit Photos and Information.

Please note that under the "Lost" column, all known personnel losses are included, not just those that occurred at the time of the loss of the vessel.

*Please note that USS Bass (SS-164) is included on this list because of the large number of men lost, even though the vessel herself was not lost.

**Although decommissioned at the time of her loss, USS G-2 (SS-27) is included here because of the loss of life.

***Divers descended to the wreck of USS S-26 soon after she sank. Tim Taylor re-discovered the wreck in September 2014.
