USS Rock (SS-274)

Commissioned as a Gato-class submarine, USS Rock (SS-274) joined a fleet of boats that fundamentally changed the balance of power in the Pacific. The Gato-class displaced approximately 1,525 tons surfaced and carried 24 torpedoes, making them formidable commerce raiders capable of strangling Japan's maritime supply lines. Every item in our USS Rock collection represents a connection to the submarine force and the crews who made these boats legendary. Designed by veterans for veterans, family members, and historians who refuse to let these stories fade.
