OK, but the name is General, Mariano G Vallejo one of the California statehood proponent in the 1880s. SSBN 658 was a Ben Franklin boomer built in Mare Island in 63. Funny thing, Mare Island is in Vallejo California, wher they named the town after General Mariano way back in the day. Mare Island has seen alot of history go thru that yard either to new modifications, scrap or other countrys and sometimes museums. Ill bet that somewhere out in cyberland theres a Mare Island foto gallery, Perhaps in the Vallejo Cal. library

And Speaking of High Atlantic Sails, heres a few of the Requin.

New sailors on an old boat. Was a bit baffeled for a second, theres no officer on the bridge, and those style kackies came out long after the Requin went to the river. Somewhere I have a picture of my son in his BDU diggies aboard the Bowfins when his ship stopped in Pearl during the Japanese tsunami. There was no off base Liberty so the kids in his division all went to the memorial and the Mo and the sub.

Glad you like it Mark, I like russian rear ends. I did also find another one but am not sure of the rules on posting pics with watermark type signatures through the middle of them? Peter.

**greenman407** · 11-08-2012, 09:34 AM

I do it all the time. If its loads up to your computer then its legal for you to take it. Also you are advertising for the Watermark guy. He will like it.

**Peter W** · 11-08-2012, 04:53 PM

OK Mark am posting said pic, I am going to say early SSBN possibly a Yankee but will be happy to be corrected.

This one I am guessing a Delta.

Peter.

Peter.

**greenman407** · 11-08-2012, 05:47 PM

Nice job Peter. The two posted on the previous page appear to be first a Yankee and second a Delta, just as you said. I already had the second one but have never seen the first one. Good Find. CHACHING!!!

**Peter W** · 11-08-2012, 06:09 PM

Mark, the only reason I.am unsure that the 1st picture was a Yankee is the way the rearplanes fair into the stern of the hull, I haven't seen the rear of a Yankee quite like that it could always be a later one I suppose. The second lot of pictures definitely looks like a Yankee in fact I am reasonably sure that it was K 329 so easy to check.I will keep posting the pics as I find them though as ot is better in a way to post pics twice than not at all.Peter.
