Thanks for the list. Looks like you got the USS Grayling, we got USS Grayback, which had a very successful career.

Just looked up the Grayback. Looks like that mainstay of sub movies, removal of an infected appendix by the Pharmacist's Mate, really did happen on the Grayback. Very successful career.

FYI, the Indiana Naval Armory seems to have lost the Grayback Memorial, but I found it at the Indiana Military Museum. :-))
