Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS Helena (SSN 725) made the seamless transition from the dry dock at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (PNS) in Portsmouth, N.H., to the waters of the Piscataqua River with the help of their shipyard project team Sept. Shipyard workers, submariners and others gathered at the Shipyard Mall at PNS to celebrate Helena's departure from dry dock. During the gathering, PNS Commander Capt. Bryant Fuller congratulated Helena's team and PNS employees. "Helena is an example of people, standards and processes," said Fuller, referring to the shipyard's current maxim.
