USS San Francisco Headed to Mainland
It looks like USS San Francisco (SSN 711) got underway from Guam, headed for Bremerton. That is going to be one long surface transit... Good luck, guys.
Going deep...
Update 0538 18 Aug: Here's a Navy Times story that talks about SFO's journey. It looks like they'll be stopping in Pearl on the way...

From what I know of submarines that must be one uncomfortable ride home. Wonder why they just did not put her on one of those ships like brought the Cole home?

Thanks for the link on this one. I was able to email Danny Hagar, a former shipmate of mine from the Miami. I just had to tell him "good job."

OK, better clean out the spam. If I did this right, you shouldn't even notice the deleted posts scattered throughout this thread.

Bremerton has all the capabilities. I went through a non refueling OH in 77-78 on the Drum. We were the ginney pig for how will a 637 withstand an impact of a dummy 48. 14 shots and all we got was a dented ballast tank.
