Description

SS-423 USS Torsk Navy Patch - For many years it was customary to name U.S. submarines for fish, although this custom no longer exists. World War II submarines were named for everything that swam, from Albacore to Whale. The Torsk got its name from a gadoid fish, allied to the codfish, which is found in the North Atlantic. The name Torsk is Norwegian in origin. Building and Commissioning USS Torsk (SS-423) was built at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
