USS BREMERTON – SSN 698

GROUP CAMPAIGN

 

All numbers have been tallied and here are the final results from the Bremerton alumi efforts to support The Pacific Fleet Submarine Museum at Pearl Harbor.  The total of all donations and pledges is equal to $11,845.00!

This amount qualifies us to be on the Interior Campaign Donor Wall, a place reserved to recognize the museum’s biggest donors.

Our efforts to secure a permanent plaque in recognition of the USS Bremerton in “the most visited submarine museum in the world” will be a source of pride and personal connection for every alumni, his family and friends.

It will make your return trip to the islands a little more special.

As we get more details on the plaque, we will let you know, though you may read about the general details at the museum’s Capital Campaign page.

Sincere thanks to every donor and for the moral support from all. Your contributions went beyond the call of duty to help with this effort!

 

PFSM Looking Forward

The Bowfin Memorial in conjunction with the new and exciting developments offered by the PFSM will be a worthy tribute to the Silent Service and something to look forward to in the future on your next trip to Pearl Harbor. Here’s are few words from the Museum about what’s been happening and where they are headed…
