Memorial Day – Honoring those On Eternal Patrol

Observed the last Monday in May, Memorial Day honors those who gave their lives in service to the United States during peace and war. A tradition in the Submarine Force is not to say that Submariners are lost or have died, but to refer to them as On Eternal Patrol.

Dollar for dollar and man for man, the submarine is the country's most economical weapon.

on May 22, 1968, the U.S. Navy suffered a profound and tragic loss. The nuclear-powered submarine USS Scorpion (SSN-589) sank 400 miles southwest of the Azores Islands, claiming the lives of all 99 crew members on board. Following a survey of the wreckage, investigators concluded that the likely cause of the sinking was a torpedo that began running in its tube, was launched, and tragically circled back to strike the submarine. Today, we pause to honor the 99 men of the Scorpion. They remain on eternal patrol, never forgotten.
