Oral history of Jim MahonyClemson University Libraries. Special Collections and ArchivesA video recording of an in-person interview conducted by Caleb Hawkins with Captain Jim Mahony on November 26, 2013. Born on February 29, 1929, Mahony enlisted in the United States Navy in 1946. After basic training, he completed the Electronic Technician Program which led him to serve on a submarine, the USS Tilefish.
Mahony later graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1953. He served aboard the USS Boxer as a signal officer, assistant navigator, and engineering officer, managing vital ship systems during the final days of the Korean War. His career continued with assignments in nuclear submarine development and shipyard management. As a submarine engineering specialist, Mahony played a role in the construction and overhaul of nuclear submarines, working on the USS Thresher program and later implementing critical Submarine Safety Program (SUBSAFE) safety reforms following its tragic loss in 1963. He finished his career as Commander of the Charleston Shipyard, supervising submarine overhauls and refueling operations.
