Naming of SSN804

Posted by cw on November 19, 2020, 13:14:59

I missed the announcement when it was made on 10/13/20. This is q welcome reversion to the traditional naming convention. Naming submarines after States never made sense given the limited number of States. I don't like the current status where naming of a ship is left to the whim of a single person, even if that person is the Secretary of the Navy.

In case others missed it, the name chosen is USS Barb.
