"Mothballed" Submarines at the Mare Island Naval Shipyard in January, 1946.
 
Note: At the bottom of the photo is the causeway between Vallejo and the shipyard. At the top of the photo, which is looking north, one can see the two permanent piers being built for the reserve fleet. These were referred to as North and South Piers, and they could moor two rows of submarines between the piers. When these piers were completed in 1946, five rows of inactive submarines were permanently moored there. On the opposite side of the piers, or the west side, were four inactive submarine tenders.
