Thoroughbred Sub Club is a program of United States Submarine Veterans, Inc. Louisville Base. Membership in USSVI is open to anyone who qualified in submarines. It was founded:

“to perpetuate the memory of our shipmates who gave their lives in the pursuit of their duties while serving their country. That their dedication, deeds and supreme sacrifice be a constant source of motivation toward greater accomplishments. Pledge loyalty and patriotism to the United States of America and its Constitution.

In addition to perpetuating the memory of departed shipmates, we shall provide a way for all Submariners to gather for the mutual benefit and enjoyment.  Our common heritage as Submariners shall be strengthened by camaraderie.  We support a strong U.S. Submarine Force.

The organization will engage in various projects and deeds that will bring about the perpetual remembrance of those shipmates who have given the supreme sacrifice. The organization will also endeavor to educate all third parties it comes in contact with about the services our submarine brothers performed and how their sacrifices made possible the freedom and lifestyle we enjoy today.”

But SubVets is much more. It is an opportunity to have camaraderie with others who share the distinguished trait of having qualified and served aboard United States submarines.
