USS Greenling (SS-213)

USS Greenling (SS-213) was a Gato-class fleet submarine, part of the class that formed the backbone of America's undersea campaign in the Pacific. Gato-class boats were the first mass-produced fleet submarines capable of extended patrols across the vast distances of the Pacific theater. With a crew of approximately 80 men, these boats operated in conditions of extreme confinement, oppressive heat, and constant danger, conducting war patrols that could last two months or more. We built the USS Greenling collection for people who understand what a hull number means. For submarine veterans, their families, and history enthusiasts, this merchandise is a way to carry the legacy of the submarine force forward.
