| At random: Traditionally, United States submarines have been named after fish and other marine creatures. One exception was the Navy's first submarine HOLLAND which was named after its inventor, John Philip Holland. Today, ballistic missile submarines are named for famous American patriots, with the newest class, the OHIO class, named after states. The LOS ANGELES class of attack submarines are named for United States cities. The nations news class of submarine, the Virginia class, is also named for US States, making them the capital ships of the navy. |

Admin Posts: 2394 Location: Renton, WA | Subject: Eternal Patrol - Dave Goodson From Seattle Base Cdr Our shipmate Dave Goodson passed to Eternal Patrol May 11th, 2026, after a long-fought battle with cancer. He had been placed on hospice very recently. We will let you know about services in early fall, he had wished to have a burial at sea and there may be a ceremony at that time. ------- I personally knew Dave because we both volunteered as workers and docents on the old Russian boat that was here on the Seattle waterfront years ago (gone now). He could do just about anything mechanical or electrical. He had a big voice and never hesitated to "share" his opinion on matters Ric Hedman and many others were friends with Dave as well. Dave was one of a kind and will be missed by many! Fair winds Dave.... RIP | ||
