With the successful completion of the Commissioning last year, the establishment of the scholarship fund for the crew and their families in the fall and the establishment and transition to the new USS Colorado Submarine Association for the long-term support of the crew, the Commissioning Committee has successfully met all of its objectives. We will keep this web site online to be a historical record of Committee’s activities including crew visits and the submarine’s construction period, but all future activities will be updated on the new Association website. We encourage all to follow USS Colorado there and become a member of the Association. All those who subscribed to our newsletter are automatically carried over to Association.

Having completed shakedown operations, she was commissioned on March 17, 2018 at Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, CT.
