San Diego, Calif. (Mar. 14, 2003) -- USS Bremerton (SSN 698) departs
its homeport of San Diego for a Western Pacific Deployment.
Commanded by Cmdr. Jerry Logan, the Los Angeles-class attack submarine
has a crew of more than 130 men and will be conducting operations
throughout the Western Pacific. The submarine is a multi-mission
stealth platform, covertly projecting power ashore by inserting Special
Operations Forces, conducting surveillance, and collecting intelligence
while providing a flexible forward presence in support of U.S.
interests. U.S. Navy photo by Lt. Kim Marks. (RELEASED)
