NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (April 21, 2007) -- Approximately 2,500 people sit in attendance of the christening ceremony for the Navy's newest Virginia-class submarine USS North Carolina (SSN 777). North Carolina is the fourth Virginia-class submarine built and the first major U.S. Navy combatant vessel class designed with the post-Cold War security environment in mind.
