Nashville to be decommissioned

By Geert De Lombaerde Posted on June 9, 2009 at 10:42 pm

Almost four decades after being commissioned, the USS Nashville will be mothballed at the end of September. The amphibious transport dock spent its last mission off the west coast of Africa.

BTW, know how many other American warships have carried the Nashville name?
