    NEWS-01: ARA SAN JUAN

    Submitted by: John E. Markiewicz on 11/28/2017

    ------------------------------------------------------

    The following was sent to the Argentine Chapter of the ISA on this date with my approval:



    On behalf of the United States Submarine Veterans (USSVI), I offer our sincere condolences on the loss of ARA San Juan. The crew and family are in our thoughts and prayers. We are grateful for their service to the Argentine Submarine Service. To our Brothers we say, “Sailor, rest your oar. We have the watch. May you rest in peace and may God bless your loved ones who remain. Thank you for your service.



    "Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way." 2 Thess 3:16.



    ARA San Juan , Now on Eternal Patrol.

    Fair Winds and Following Seas Shipmate.



    Bill Dixon, National Chaplain United States Submarine Veterans, USSVI.

    The USSVI is not a government organization, it is made up completely of current and former sub sailors. It acts in submariner's interests. I have to commend them for taking this initiative.

    May they rest in peace. We all tend to forget the old Coasties saying, You have to go out, but you don't have to come back.
