Captains of the USS Francis Scott Key
This page is dedicated to the men who were given the honor of commanding the Francis Scott Key. Their unique talents and capabilities propelled them to command one of the nations most powerful deterrent weapon systems which ultimately led to the ending of the cold war. Commanding an FBM submarine, as we all know, is no easy task and one not many men could handle, yet excel. The men listed below did both.

I would like to get as many of the COs as I can to give us a brief written story of their time on the Key and link that story to their name above. If you were CO on the Key, please contact me at ssbn657@comcast.net. If you have a picture of a CO also send it along. If a COs name is underlined, click on it for more information and/ or a picture of that CO.
