Norfolk Shoves Off, US Navy Photogrpah
Summary
Sailors aboard the Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS Norfolk (SSN 714) heave mooring lines as the submarine departs from Pier 3, at Naval Station Norfolk, for a regularly scheduled six-month deployment. Attack submarines like Norfolk are designed to seek and destroy enemy submarines and surface ships, project power ashore with Tomahawk cruise missiles and special operation forces, carry out intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions, support carrier and expeditionary strike battle groups and engage in mine warfare operations.
