Korean War Patrol
"Scabbardfish" participated in reconnaissance missions during the Korean War. In December 1952, when weather conditions required suspension of the Hokkaido area patrols, she was assigned a special patrol duty of the coast of China. This marked a time when submarines were being used increasingly for special operations including amphibious raids and other clandestine missions.

Famous quotes containing the word war:
“... the next war will be a war in which people not armies will suffer, and our boasted, hard-earned civilization will do us no good. Cannot the women rise to this great opportunity and work now, and not have the double horror, if another war comes, of losing their loved ones, and knowing that they lifted no finger when they might have worked hard?”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
