Описание: Today we’re diving into the incredible career of USS Perch, a Balao-class submarine that served in more roles than almost any other American sub. Commissioned in 1944, she launched seven war patrols across the South China Sea, Surigao Strait, and Borneo, attacking shipping, aiding B-29 strikes, and even landing Australian commandos for stealth missions. After the war, Perch was reborn as transport sub SSP-313—later ASSP and LPSS-313—transitioning into a pioneering special operations platform. She carried Royal Marines during the Korean War, trained U.S. Marines, Army Special Forces, and UDT teams, and supported early Vietnam-era missions. Retired in 1973, Perch proved how versatile a submarine could truly be.
