I served on the USS Cod AGSS-224 in the middle sixties. She was a training ship then to train a reserve division in Cleveland, OH. No screws. It was a DC, direct current, boat and we had to run motor-generator set on the pier to power the board. Everything on her still worked except the screws were removed in accordance with our treaty with Canada. No war ship can be stationed on the great lakes.

I learn something new here all the time.
