Watercolor Print on
Nautical Chart by Adam Koltz |
Originally planned to be named the USS Corpus Christi, the Navy instead named her USS City of Corpus Christi (SSN-705) to clarify that it was named after the city, and not the translation of the Latin phrase “body of Christ” after several complaints from Catholic politicians.
