| 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).
