Pearl Harbor, Hawaii (Feb. 23, 2004) -- A tug gently guides the
nuclear-powered Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS La Jolla (SSN
701) away from its pier as it heads out for a scheduled Western Pacific
deployment. The submarine is equipped with the Special Operations
capable Dry Deck Shelter (DDS), which can allow special operation
forces including Navy SEALs (Sea, Air, Land) to deploy undetected from
deployed submarines. U.S. Navy photo by Journalist 3rd Class Corwin
