Summary[edit]

Description
English: Groton, Conn (Jun 5, 2004) – Former President Jimmy Carter (right) waves to the crowd as he and Navy Secretary, Gordon England take their seats for the christening ceremony of the Seawolf-class nuclear attack submarine Jimmy Carter (SSN 23). This christening was a homecoming of sorts for the former Commander-in-Chief, who was stationed in the Groton Connecticut area from 1948 to 1952 as a young submarine officer. The new submarine honors the 39th president of the United States who is the only submarine-qualified man that went on to become the nation's chief executive. Differentiating the Jimmy Carter from all other undersea vessels is her Multi-Mission Platform (MMP), which includes a 100-foot hull extension that enhances payload capability, enabling it to accommodate advanced technology required to develop and test an entirely new generation of weapons, sensors and undersea vehicles. Jimmy Carter is the third and last of the Seawolf class submarines. U.S. Navy photo by Journalist 3rd Class Steven Feller (RELEASED)
