The Naval Research Laboratory's ex-USS Shadwell is a decommissioned U.S. Navy Landing Ship Dock that serves as the Navy's full-scale damage control research, development, test and evaluation platform. Moored in Mobile Bay, Ala., the ship is regularly set ablaze in controlled demonstrations to test firefighting technologies, tactics and procedures and damage control practices to improve the safety of operational Navy and civilian shipboard firefighting measures.
