The following tables show the officers assigned to command America's wartime-commissioned submarines (including several commissioned from late 1945 through the end of 1946) during World War II. The main
source for this information is the online version of the  reports filed by each boat after a war patrol, which have been made available by the HNSA here. For this reason, the greatest detail is presented on
submarines which completed war patrols. I have also referenced various online sites (including this one in particular) and the Navy Directory,  as well as published works by Clay Blair, Theodore Roscoe, Charles
Lockwood, and others to supplement the information contained in the war patrol reports.

This list is not complete and will be updated as more information becomes available to me. Additional lists have been created for the WWI-era O, R, & S Class boats as well as the interwar-built fleet submarines in
the USN.

The rank given for commanding officers is the highest rank I am aware of them holding during their tour in command.

For the dates associated with the C.O.'s command tour, exact dates of assuming command and being relieved were used where available. Dates marked with an asterisk (*) are not such specific dates but
represent the earliest/latest dates my sources show the officer as being in command. If only one date is listed, that is the only date I know of right now  on which the officer held that command.

"Prior assignment" is not necessarily the officers most recent duty before assuming command but the most recent assignment I know he held. By the same token, "Subsequent assignment" is not necessarily the
assignment held immediately following being relieved of command. All ships listed as prior or subsequent assignments are submarines unless otherwise noted.
