From the March 25th San Diego Tribune Union.
At Liberty Station in Point Lomo there is a memorial honoring World War II submariners and the submarines that never made it home. You can go on a walking tour past 52 granite slabs with etchings, one for each of the US submarines and their crews lost during the war.
This memorial comes after a ten year effort of the San Diego chapter of United States Submarine veterans. You will also find 52 Liberty American elm tress planted on the grounds.
The fairwater part of the conning tower of the USS Roncudar is also there.
The memorial is located at Sub Base Point Lomo, San Diego, California.
