What boat was she? LA class? Seawolf? Virginia?

I did eight 70-90 day deterrent patrols on USS Francis Scott Key(SSBN-657). I liked the boat and the crew.

I think it was the USS Snook. Hard to remember it was so long ago.

USS Florida (SSGN-728) is a converted Ohio-class Submarine.

Instead of Trident C-4 missiles, she now carries 145 Tomahawk missiles in 22 groups of 7. She is home ported about 4 miles from me.
