Aboard the USS Springfield



Ryan and I headed down to Groton with the scouts for a tour of the USS Springfield (SSN-761), a Los Angeles-class submarine, is the fourth ship of the United States Navy to bear that name. The earlier Springfields were named for differing reasons; SSN-761 was specifically named for Springfield, Illinois and Springfield, Massachusetts. This was a nuclear sub. (Powered, it didn't have nukes)








I have a sticker just like this picture.
