On October 12, 1900 the USS Holland was commissioned into the united States Navy. The Sub Service recognizes April 11, 1900 as it's Birthday though that was just the purchase date. The submarine did not begin its service as a commissioned vessel until Oct 12. Any other submarines used by the US Government before this time were not commissioned vessels.
