(2) Designate and assign responsibilities to NAVSEA codes for support of SUBMISS/SUBSUNK.
(3) Ensure that within NAVSEA, SUBMISS/SUBSUNK awareness training is conducted.
(4) Ensure that documentation data packages are developed and maintained to support SUBMISS/SUBSUNK operations involving U.S. Navy submarines or U.S. Navy maintained or leased submersibles.
Purpose. To ensure that the Naval Sea Systems Command is prepared to provide assistance whenever Submarine Missing/Submarine Sunk (SUBMISS/SUBSUNK) is declared for a submarine or manned noncombatant submersible.
