We
are an organization with but one simple requirement to join — have you ever been
designated, “Qualified in Submarines.” All of us have served their country in the Silent Service. USSVI Creed: "To perpetuate the memory of our shipmates who gave their lives in the pursuit of their duties while serving their country. That their dedication, deeds and supreme sacrifice be a constant source of motivation toward greater accomplishments. Pledge loyalty and patriotism to the United States of America and its Constitution."

As a monument to all Cold War veterans, Perch Base is dedicated to help in the preservation of parts of the original USS Phoenix (SSN-702.) To that goal, the Base has built the float, shown above. The float is a ¼” = 1 foot scale model of the nuclear powered submarine USS Phoenix (SSN-702,) named after our city. The Phoenix was a Los Angeles-class submarine that was 632 feet long and, on the surface, had 32 feet under water. Check out the “Photo Gallery” page for more photos of the Base Float.
