[NA] This Should Spike the Neighborhood

Heh. My Grandfather was with BIW (Naval Architect) for quite a while...
 
A few of my overviews while heading to/from Wiscasset Airport. The ship in one of them was named after the soldier(Medal of Honor) who picked up an enemy grenade and tossed it back at the adversary; saved 20 of his own company but lost his life when it exploded. Most of those he saved(maybe all) were at the ship's christening ceremony, and spoke at same.
