WALL OF HONOR
In grateful memory of these
submariners who died in the service
of their country
during World War II.
They stand in the unbroken line of
patriots who have dared to die so
that freedom might live.
Their final resting places are known
only to the Almighty.
Their family, friends living shipmates
and future generations should know
they will always be remembered.
Walk softly, walk softly stranger
You stand on hallowed ground.
