I Can't Believe Seawolf Is Almost 10 Years Old

The Norwich Bulletin had an article today about how USS Seawolf (SSN 21) is leaving Groton for a homeport change to Bangor on Friday. (It's part of a move of SSN assets from the Atlantic to the Pacific.) The first thing I thought was: "Seawolf can't be 10 years old! I was just riding her for Alpha Trials a couple years ago."

Alas, it's true. Seawolf was commissioned 10 years ago next month. How time flies...
