Not officially, of course. But the hull number of my submarine, the USS Florida, was SSBN 728, and because of the way my brain is wired, whenever I see the date, 7/28, it makes me think of that.

A few years ago, the Florida was converted to an SSGN which means they removed the Trident missile capability and configured it with conventional missiles and support for special ops. Except for that whole “King’s Bay, GA,” thing, I’m pretty jealous.
