Bummer, the Navy has decommissioned the USS Miami (SSN-755), a nuclear attack sub commissioned on June 30, 1990. The sub was seriously damaged early into a 20-month overhaul by a wacko civilian shipyard sandblaster/painter who intentionally started a fire so he could get off work early on May 23, 2012. Not only did he get off early but he was subsequently sentenced to over 17 years in federal prison and to pay $400 million in restitution. The Navy decided that $500 million to repair the sub was not cost-effective.
