Commissioning Day 1935. The crew and a detachment of US Marines are on deck. What could possibly be the Chief Of The Boat (COB) is aft at the flag staff waiting for the order to raise the American Flag. The Marine Corps bugler is standing at the ready to play the appropriate call as the Submarine is officially placed in commission.
