I suspect Dick does indeed refer to USS SILVERSTEIN, DE-534.

When I was in the submarine business 45 years ago, we often referred to the fast attack nuclear submarine USS SILVERSIDES, SSN-679, as the SILVERFISH if any of the 679 boys were within earshot.  I'm absolutely certain that they all found that as just humorous as we did.
