USS Sarda (SS-488)
USS ''Sarda'' (SS-488), a ''Tench''-class submarine, was the only ship of the United States Navy to be named for the sarda, a game fish of the central, southwestern, and western Pacific Ocean. Financed by bonds purchased during the Seventh War Loan by the residents of Lynn, Massachusetts, her keel was laid down on 12 April 1945 at the Portsmouth Navy Yard. She was launched on 24 August 1945 sponsored by Mrs. Heffernan, the wife of James J. Heffernan, Congressman from New York.
==Waiting==
Since World War II had ended just weeks before the submarine's launch, the decision as to whether to commission or scrap her had to be made. ''Sarda''’s prospective commanding officer grew frustrated with the debate over the fate of his boat. During the months of waiting, he received a small plaque from his father inscribed ''Illegitimi non Carborundum'' — "Don't Let the Bastards Grind You Up." ''Sarda'' was eventually commissioned on 19 April 1946 with Commander Chester W. Nimitz, Jr., son of the famous Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, in command.
