Keywords: outdoor Lot-9434-21: These Men Are In Training For Life On A U.S. Submarine. The modern submarine is playing a big part in the war on the seas. Its quarry is all of the enemy’s navy but its aircraft. It seeks convoys and unprotected merchant ships, harries fleets, and sometimes engages in deadly underwater duels with others of its own kind. Among the world’s navies, U.S. submarines are considered supreme. One reason for this supremacy is the strenuous training of their crews. The training, shown in this set of 18 pictures, is given the submarine candidate at U.S. Navy’s Submarine School at New London, Connecticut, in the northeastern section of the United States. Shown: A lean U.S. submarine raider slips out of port. It is manned by a crew of experienced submarine men, all of whom won their coveted submarine duty by standing up to this rigorous training at the New London School.
