Her ten boats conducted Panama Sea Frontier patrols for the Atlantic Fleet. As tensions grew through the Thirties, Squadron Three's mission evolved into the defense of coastal regions on both ends of the canal. Most of Squadron Three's submarines shifted to the Pacific end of the canal when war broke out. As World War II progressed, most of the squadron's submarines were transferred to more active regions, leaving only four subs in Squadron Three by August 1943. Squadron Three was deactivated July 1, 1945 and reactivated in Guam on October 1, 1945. In February, 1946 the squadron moved to San Diego. Submarine Squadron Three continued to serve proudly until March 31, 1995 when it was again deactivated. On June 16, 1997 Submarine Squadron Three rejoined the Pacific Submarine Force in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/index.htm COMSUBRON THREE SUB'S USS Key West (SSN 722) http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/722.htm   USS Chicago (SSN 721) http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/721.htm   USS Louisville (SSN 724) http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/724.htm   USS Olympia (SSN 717) http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/717.htm   USS Minneapolis-St. Paul (SSN 708) http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/708.htm _________________ U.
