ABOUT
USS Guardfish (SS-217), a Gato-class submarine, was the first ship of the United States Navy to be named for the voracious green and silvery fish with elongated pike-like body and long narrow jaws.
Guardfish departed Midway 8 May 1945 on her 12th and last war patrol, and was assigned lifeguard station for the ever-increasing air attacks on the Japanese mainland. The veteran submarine served with the training command after the war and was decommissioned 25 May 1946.
