NAVAL BASE POINT LOMA – A commemorative logo celebrating 125 years of U.S. Navy submarine service. The design features a blue and gold color scheme, representing the deep, unyielding waters where submariners operate and the excellence and honor they uphold. Six white stars symbolize the six classes and types of U.S. submarines—Los Angeles, Virginia, Seawolf, Ohio (SSBN), Ohio (SSGN) and Columbia—symbolizing the evolution of submarine warfare and technological advancement. Fifty-two blue stars honor the 52 submarines lost in World War II. At the heart of the design, the silhouette of a Los Angeles-class fast-attack submarine braves rough seas, embodying the 125 years of resilience, stealth, and unwavering dedication the Submarine Force has provided to the U.S. Navy.
