My grandfather was Walter Griffith, the commander of the Bowfin during the night incident when it surfaced in between the Japanese fleet and sunk 3 ships in 24 hours. He was an enlisted man who attended the Naval Academy and retired as a Real Admiral. He suffered at the end of his life from depression and alcoholism until shooting himself in 1966. His crew loved him as one of their own. He used to have nightmares hearing Japanese sailors screaming as they drowned. Everywhere he went he was thanked and honored for his incredible service commanding both the Bowfin and then the Bullhead that ended up disappearing at the end of the war. He would tell people that he felt awful for killing all those people. They have a small plaque of him in the Naval Academy men’s locker room. Unfortunately, military leaders with consciences aren’t thought too highly of after they die. Thanks for this video.

I visited the Bowfin while at Pearl back in '95.
Had a cousin who served on the SS Tilefish during WWII so a visit to the submariners memorial was a must.

As teenagers growing up as Air Force brats in Hawaii, my sister and I were part of the earliest volunteers to help clean and prepare the Bowfin for visitors once she was moved out of West loch to where she now sits. Scraped a lot of rust, rolled a lot of paint and shined a ton of brass. Once opened to the public I spent my high school weekends as a tour guide until I graduated and left the islands for my own Navy adventure in 1983. Beat the heck out of flipping burgers! Met some wonderful Navy vets and educated a lot of visitors on the silent service. Nice to see her doing so well.

Just visited Bowfin in Pearl Harbor 2 weeks ago. Sadly my tour did not leave time to do the tour of her, but I have visited several of her sisters (Clagmore in Charleston & Croaker in Buffalo) over the years & plan on returning soon

I remember seeing USS Bowfin for the only time in my life so far, at the end of a cruise around Hawaii back in 2010. For a 12-year-old me, standing in the sweltering heat of Pearl Harbor, it looked like another sister to Buffalo’s dear USS Croaker. Little did I know that 13 years later, I would see this special about its life story. Such a crazy time that war was. And so much has happened since. But through it all, these old Museum vessels are still looking good. . . . . For now.

Great job about the "silent service." "Silent Victory" is a great book about US submarine war against Japan in WW2, but it was almost unread. They are still the unheralded branch of service. My salute to those who serve, including St. Charles, if he ever reads this. Wait, 5 ships... Bowfin should have been awarded a Kraken, right?
