USS Flounder (SS-251)

Built to the Gato-class standard, USS Flounder (SS-251) was one of the workhorses of the Pacific submarine war. The Gato design combined range, reliability, and firepower in a hull that could operate thousands of miles from base, striking at Japan's merchant fleet and naval forces across the breadth of the ocean. The USS Flounder collection exists because every boat in the fleet carried a crew that deserves to be remembered. Our apparel and memorabilia are designed for the submarine community, military families, and anyone drawn to the authentic history of undersea warfare.
