U.S.S. Hyman G. Rickover
The Rickover arrived in Portsmouth Naval Shipyard for inactivation. This sub was launched the year I was born, 1983. It's namesake, Hyman G. Rickover, was the "Father of the Nuclear Navy" and served in the Navy for 63 years. It was the only one of the Los Angeles class fast attack submarines to be named for a person, rather than a city.
