| Description | 330-PSA-232-62 (USN 711118): After historic rendezvous under the Polar Ice pack, crews of the nuclear-powered submarines USS Skate (SSN 578) and USS Seadragon (SSN 584) exchange colors and memorial plaques. In center, Commander Joseph L. Skoog, Jr., USN, Commanding Officer of Skate, (left), and Commander Charles D. Summitt, USN, Commanding Officer of Seadragon, exchange plaques. Photograph released August 22, 1962. Master caption: The submarines surface together at the North Pole, carried out anti-submarine warfare exercises, collected scientific information, and established a new year-round submarine channel by exploring a passage through the Kennedy and Robeson Channels (between Greenland and Ellesmere Island). The two submarines proceeded to the historic meeting, operation independently, carrying out tests of electronic equipment and gathering scientific information. All tests of sonar capabilities, ASW capabilities, and underwater communications, proved highly successful. USS Skate departed on July 2, and USS Seadragon departed on July 12. (10/6/2015). Original photograph is substandard. |
