Tilefish Operational Timeline

31 Jan 1945 Submarines USS Thresher, USS Peto, and USS Shad departed Pearl Harbor, Hawaiʻi as a wolfpack bound initially for Saipan in the Mariana Islands. Thresher was starting her fifteenth war patrol, Peto her eighth, and Shad her ninth. Commander John Middleton aboard Thresher was the wolfpack commander. The wolfpack would be known as "Middleton's Mobsters." Submarine USS Tilefish sailed with the wolfpack bound for Saipan but would not be a part of the wolfpack after that.
12 Feb 1945 Submarines USS Thresher, USS Peto, USS Shad, and USS Tilefish arrived at Saipan in the Mariana Islands and moored alongside submarine tender USS Fulton.
13 Feb 1945 Aboard submarine tender USS Fulton in Saipan Harbor, the commanding officers of submarines USS Thresher, USS Peto, USS Shad, and USS Tilefish were briefed about upcoming operations by Vice Admiral Charles Lockwood, Pacific Fleet Submarine Commander. Thresher, Peto, Shad, and Tilefish then departed Saipan bound for their respective patrol areas.
16 Feb 1945 Submarine USS Tilefish parted company with submarines USS Thresher, USS Peto, and USS Shad.
