The USS Jimmy Carter will depart Kings Bay with former president, wife today ---
ST. MARYS -- The USS Jimmy Carter is scheduled to depart from its first visit to Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base today, after picking up two temporary crew members: the boat's namesake, Jimmy Carter, and his wife, Rosalynn.
The former president and first lady are scheduled for an overnight dive on the Navy's third and final Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine. This will be the first dive for the former governor of Georgia since his Navy career ended in 1953, and the first dive ever for his wife.
Carter's visit marks the first time he has visited Kings Bay. He was president in 1978 when the seldom-used Army depot was officially designated as a submarine base.
The Navy said details of the Carters' visit are being withheld for security reasons. Officials planned to give the couple a full tour of the base before they depart today on their overnight dive.
After his return, Carter plans to hold a news conference Friday to answer questions about his first sub dive in more than 50 years. The event is not open to the public.

And they let this anti-American POS, another shining example of what happens when you put a SOCIALIST in the White House (SNAFU), get near our military....makes me ill.
Makes YOU ill? Imagine the sub's crew! ;-)
Carter is a disgrace to the Naval Academy. If he had any character at all, he would confess that he has broken faith with the Brigade of Mishsipmen, and return his diploma---and the cost of his education at USNA.
"This will be the first dive for the former governor of Georgia since his Navy career ended in 1953."
He went to sea on a 688 CL boat in 1977 or 1978 along with ADM Rickover. He also visited a boat in 1979 or 1980 but I don't think he went to sea that time.
Do you think he was a rat when he ran the sub or was it some rebirth required to be a democrat?
If the entire Clinton crime syndicate has 'em, why not?
see any attacking rabbits, Mr Carter?
