The Monument Inscription Read:
This Memorial is dedicated to all U.S.
Submarine Sailors both living
and deceased that dared to "Take Her Deep"
and especially those submariners that manned
the Fleet Ballistic Missile Submarine
U.S.S. Nathanael Greene SSBN-636
During her 40 plus nuclear deterrent patrols from 1964 to 1986 these "Boomer" patrols comprised the 3rd leg
of our country's nuclear triad which so effectively contained the Soviet Union and contributed greatly to our country winning the Cold War.
Pride Runs Deep
This Memorial sponsored by the Ozark-Runner Base United States Submarine Veterans Inc.
