Submarine Squadron A Submarine Squadron ( SUBRON ) is a U . S . Navy formation / unit , mirrored in other states such as the United Kingdom , and Russia / Soviet Union . In France the equivalent unit is the escadrille des sous - marins nucléaires d ' attaque ( ESNA ) , part of the French submarine forces . United States Navy . A SUBRON usually consists of three or more submarine s . It is the submarine force equivalent to a Destroyer Squadron or DESRON in the surface Navy . The officer in charge of SUBRON ONE is designated Commander Submarine Squadron One or COMSUBRON ONE . However , unlike a destroyer squadron — which actually moves its staff aboard its ships and deploys with them as an operational Task Element commander — a SUBRON commander and his staff always remain in homeport , and are responsible only for the training , equipping and administering of the ships under its umbrella . A submarine squadron is usually commanded by a Captain ( O - 6 ) who has already had at least one tour as commander of a submarine . Up until World War II and possibly afterwards , submarine squadrons could have several Submarine Divisions ( SubDivs ) , often pairs of submarines . Several submarine squadrons may be organized into a " Submarine Group " ( SUBGRU ) , headed under a flag officer . For instance , CSS - 17 , CSS - 19 and CSDS - 5 are part of SUBGRU - 9 in Bangor , Washington . The overall responsibility for submarines on the west coast of the United States is taken by the Commander Submarine Force , U . S . Pacific Fleet ( COMSUBPAC ) ; on the east coast , the same responsibility rests with the Commander Submarine Force , Atlantic Fleet ( COMSUBLANT ) . The latter is the senior of the two , and thus also plays a secondary role as Commander , Submarine Force ( COMSUBFOR ) . When a submarine deploys , for instance as part of a Carrier Strike Group , operational command is transferred to the numbered fleet commander for the theater to which the submarine is deploying , e . g . , Commander Fifth Fleet . List of submarine squadrons . Odd numbered squadrons are West Coast ( Pacific Fleet ) , Even numbered East Coast ( Atlantic Fleet ) .

German submarine U - 1 ( 1935 ) German submarine " U - 1 " was the first U - boat ( or submarine ) built for the German " Kriegsmarine " following Adolf Hitler ' s abrogation of the terms of the Treaty of Versailles in 1935 , which banned Germany possessing a submarine force . A Type IIA U - boat , she was built at the Deutsche Werke shipyards in Kiel as ' Werk ' 236 , her keel being laid on 11 February 1935 amid celebration . She was completed on 29 June 1935 after a very rapid construction , and was manned by crews trained in the Netherlands . Service history . Her pre - war service was unremarkable , but she did gain a reputation as a poor ship . Her rapid construction , combined with the inadequacy of the technology which was used to create her , made her uncomfortable , leaky and slow . When war came , there were already plans to shelve her and her immediate sisters of the Type II class for use as training boats only . Despite this however , owing to a shortage of available units she sailed on 29 March 1940 against British shipping operating off Norway , close to the limit of her effective operating range . She failed to find a target , but was sent out again on 4 April , in preparation for Operation Weserübung ( the invasion of Norway ) . Fate .

Battle of Mendaza The Battle of Mendaza was an early battle of the First Carlist War , occurring on December 12 , 1834 at Mendaza , Navarre . The Carlists had enjoyed a victory in the Battle of Venta de Echavarri in October and also the fruits of a raid on Navarre , in which Tomás de Zumalacárregui would station himself at La Berrueza with a number of supplies , clothes , money , and new troops . The morale of the Carlists was very high , and they decided to fight the Liberal troops in a formal battle ( rather than with guerrilla tactics ) . This would happen on December 14 , 1834 , at the Battle of Mendaza . Tomás de Zumalacárregui concentrated his forces at the bottom of the valley of La Berrueza between Mendaza and Asarta . Luis Fernández de Córdova ’ s forces were stationed outside of this valley , at Los Arcos . Zumalacárregui attempted to follow a plan of battle similar to that enacted by Hannibal at Cannae : he would allow enemy forces to drive themselves into a large arc — whereupon the Carlist infantry , positioned on the flanks in the forests of Holm oak s on the mountain of Dos Hermanas , would encircle the main body of Liberal infantry and destroy it . However , the Liberal leader of the vanguard , Marcelino Oráa , himself a Navarrese and familiar with the terrain , recognized the potential trap and instead marched towards Mendaza rather than through the valley itself . The Carlists , surprised by this maneuver and inexperienced on the field of battle , were thrown back and retreated , taking refuge in the mountains . Sources . " First hand accounts " : Secondary :
