Summary

Description 040522-N-6240R-239 Newport News, Va. (May 22, 2004) - Northrop Grumman Newport News President Thomas C. Schievelbein displays the initials of Ship's Sponsor Mrs. Linda Bowman, 2nd from left, during the Keel Laying Ceremony of Pre-Commissioning Unit (PCU) North Carolina (SSN 777), the U.S. Navy's newest Virginia-class submarine. Accompanying them are Director Navy Nuclear Propulsion, Adm. Frank "Skip" Bowman and North Carolina Senator Elizabeth Dole. PCU North Carolina is the 4th Virginia-class submarine to begin construction, and is the 6th Navy vessel to be named North Carolina. The Ship's sponsor Mrs. Linda Bowman said, "For the submarine North Carolina, my hope is that she will sail in peace to keep us free. My assurance is that she will always be ready to defend that freedom whenever necessary." The current construction schedule calls for the submarine's launching in late 2005 followed by commissioning in late 2007. U.S. Navy photo by Journalist 1st Class Donald P. Rule (RELEASED)
