A proposito di questo titolo

“Fish don’t vote.”

That was Admiral Hyman Rickover’s explanation for why the Navy began naming attack submarines for cities. By 1987, the Navy was naming its Trident missile boats for states, and Congressman Sam Gejdenson wanted to know why Connecticut was missing from the list. After all, the boats were being built at Electric Boat in Groton.

On Patrol Reports, Dave Bowman follows Gejdenson’s appeal from a newspaper clipping to the christening of USS Connecticut and a naming decision decades later that brought the story back to the shipyard’s hometown.
