The U.S. Navy's first real operational and commissioned submarine was the USS Holland (SS-1), launched on May 17, 1897, and commissioned October 12, 1900. It was designed an built by Naval Engineer John Phillip Holland, founder of the famed General Dynamics Electric Boat Division.
Prior to the Holland, the U.S. Navy did accept a submarine on May 1, 1862 that was eventually called the Alligator; however, it never really made it past testing, and was cut adrift at sea and lost during a storm. Its original power source was oars.
