Unit history
USS Guitarro (SSN-665) was a Sturgeon-class nuclear attack submarine, part of the largest class of nuclear attack boats built until the Los Angeles-class. The 37 Sturgeon-class submarines formed the backbone of the Cold War attack submarine fleet, conducting intelligence-gathering missions, tracking Soviet submarines and surface forces, and operating under Arctic ice in support of national strategic objectives.
The Guitarro collection exists because every boat in the fleet carried a crew that earned the right to be remembered. Our apparel and memorabilia are built for submarine veterans and the families who stood with them.
