SNIPPED

Ships that go down (submarines) are named after fish !


Actually, only three of them are currently named for fish/aquatic animals,
the Seawolf (SSN-21), the Dolphin (AGSS-555) and the Cutthroat (LSV-2) that
I can find. Most are named for cities and states:

You can check out each class of submarine from this website.



I know, just further examples of the madness......
