| Razorback Base History and Pictures |
||||
| The ”USSVI Razorback" base was chartered in October of 2000 through the combined efforts of many; including Carl Schmidt, Bruce Lipe, Billy Hollaway, Ben Schultz, Martin Hall and Wendell Dedmon. There are 47 Charter members of this Base plus several Associate members including wifes of members. The memberships have continued to grow over the last four years and now is up to 122. One of the purposes of the base is to recognize all past and present Submariners, and to honor all Submariners who have given their lives to preserve the peace for those to follow. Another purpose of this base is to provide a contact source for submariners residing within the State of Arkansas, where they can share in the camaraderie of their shipmates, share their experiences aboard submarines and in the Navy. The "Razorback” Submarine Base is a subsidiary of the United States Submarine Veterans, Inc.(USSVI). |
