Fox. The first Trident refit, strategic and tactical loadouts were completed in August of 1982. In 1988 USS ALABAMA completed the 100th Trident deterrent patrol. In April of 1998, USS MICHIGAN completed the 500th Trident Deterrent Patrol and In May of 2001 USS FLORIDA completed the 3500th Deterrent Patrol. https://www.css17.navy.mil/html/history.htm Four of Bangor's eight Ohio-class submarines are to be converted to special operations boats, carrying conventional weapons rather than nuclear warheads. In their place, Bangor gets the USS Pennsylvania and the USS Kentucky from the East Coast. In October 2002 the SSBN 735 Pennsylvania became the first new sub sent to Bangor in more than a decade. The USS Ohio, the first of the Trident-packing subs, departed Bangor in early October 2002. It will be followed by the Michigan, Florida and Georgia, reducing the nation's Trident ballistic missile submarine fleet from 18 to 14 under START. After all the shifts are done, Bangor will have six Trident subs, down from eight, while King's Bay, former home of the Pennsylvania, will lose two for a fleet of eight. http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/agency/subron17.htm The Strategic Submarine Force was born when the USS GEORGE WASHINGTON was commissioned in 1959. Since that time, the boats have been a mainstay of our deterrent force. First Strategic Deterrent Patrol - November, 1960   Over 995 Ship-Years Deployed Over 3300 Patrols   Over 16,100 Missile-Years Ready   Over 145,200 Man-years Submerged The squadron has received two Meritorious Unit Commendation. https://www.css17.navy.mil/html/history.htm The mission of the squadron is to support the 4 boats and 8 crews that make up the strategic deterrent force in the Pacific. To accomplish this mission, the squadron is staffed with numerous subject matter experts who constantly monitor the operational and tactical readiness of the boats and crews. The squadron staff consists of 17 officers and 60 enlisted people. https://www.css17.navy.mil/html/mission.htm COMSUBRON SEVENTEEN SUBS USS PENNSYLVANIA (SSBN 735) https://www.pennsylvania.navy.mil USS KENTUCKY (SSBN 737) https://www.kentucky.navy.mil USS NEBRASKA (SSBN 739)) https://www.nebraska.navy.mil USS LOUISIANA (SSBN 743) https://www.louisiana.navy.mil USS San Francisco (SSN 711) http://navysite.de/ssn/ssn711.htm USS Honolulu (SSN 718) http://www.csp.navy.mil/css3/718.htm SUBRON Submarine Squadron 19 Submarine Squadron 19 COMSUBRON NINETEEN CSS-19 Bangor, WA https://www.css19.navy.mil/index.asp http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/agency/navy/subron19.htm SUBRON 9 - CSS-19 - Bangor, WA. http://www.freepowerboards.com/owcommandpost/owcommandpost-about1432.html SUBGRU Submarine Group 9 Submarine Group 9 COMSUBGRU NINE CSG9 Bangor, WA. https://www.csg9.navy.mil http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/agency/subgru9.htm SUBGRU 9 - CSS-17 & CSS-19 - Bangor, WA. - Silverdale, WA http://www.freepowerboards.com/owcommandpost/viewtopic.php?p=9536#9536 _________________ U.
