The USS Bremerton submarine headed out of Naval Base Kitsap this morning following a weeklong visit. The crew of almost 150 made the most of the visit to the city she’s named for, performing a park renovation, visiting Mayor Patty Lent’s office and even inviting some guests aboard for tours.

I was fortunate to have been one of those guests. They gave us an incredible tour of the vessel that will stand out as a highlight of my reporting career.

Loved the cribbage board, too.

Here’s some more photos of our visit. The Bremerton will return to Bremerton a few years from now to be decommissioned.
