Description on original page: 060617-N-3642E-004 Groton, Conn. (Jun. 17, 2006) - Hawaii Governor, the Honorable Linda Lingle smashes a bottle of champagne against the sail of the Virginia-class nuclear attack submarine Pre-Commissioning Unit (PCU) Hawaii (SSN 776) during the ship's christening ceremony. General Dynamics Electric Boat President, Mr. John Casey, Sen. Christopher Dodd and Sen. Daniel Inouye, watch as the ship receives the governor's blessing. Hawaii is the third Virginia-class submarine to be christened, and the 1st major U.S. Navy combatant vessel class designed with the post-Cold War security environment in mind and embodies the war fighting and operational capabilities required to dominate the littorals while maintaining undersea dominance in the open ocean.
