SILVERDALE, Wash. – Sailors assigned to Submarine Readiness Squadron 31 prepare to put on a new command ball cap during a name change ceremony at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor July 15. Naval Submarine Support Centers Groton, Connecticut; Kings Bay, Georgia; Bangor, Washington; and Pearl Harbor, Hawaii changed their names to Submarine Readiness Squadron. The name change is in alignment with the submarine community’s mission to generate combat ready submarines to meet mission tasking and generation for combatant commanders by supporting operational submarines, new submarine construction, and addressing and maintaining the operational fleet needs during Chief of Naval Operations maintenance availabilities. The Submarine Force and supporting organizations constitute the primary undersea arm of the Navy. Submarines and their crews remain the tip of the undersea spear. (U.S. Navy Photo by Lt. Cmdr.
