Sailors "man the ship" and officially bring the newest Virginia-class nuclear attack submarine USS North Carolina to life during her commissioning ceremony. North Carolina is the fourth Virginia-class submarine to be commissioned and the first major U.S. Navy combatant vessel class designed with the post-Cold War security environment in mind. North Carolina will be homeported in Groton, Conn., as a member of the U.S. Atlantic Fleet. (U.S. Navy photo/Petty Officer 3rd Class Kelvin Edwards)
