The pictures below show larger views of this Large Old Framed U.S. Navy Submarine U.S.S. Ohio SSBN – 726 Commanding Officer Retirement Photograph. Shown is the entire frame, front and back, a closer view of the photograph, and closer views of the information written on the front and back. Apparently this was a retirement photograph that was presented to a Commanding Officer of the Ohio, Captain George W. Emery for 39 years of naval service and between June 1983 and May 1985 as the (Gold) Commanding Officer of the USS Ohio submarine. The photograph is of the submarine USS Ohio surfaced at an unknown location with some of the crew on deck, outside the sub. It is marked on the two sides as follows:

(front)
PRESENTED UPON COMPLETION OF 39 YEARS OF FAITHFUL SERVICE TO
SIDNEY W. EMERY
FROM THE OFFICERS AND MEN OF
USS OHIO (SSBN 726) GOLD
CAPTAIN GEORGE W EMERY, USN, COMMANDING

(back)
G.W.E. (for George W. Emery)
COMMANDING OFFICERS USS OHIO (GOLD)
6/83 - 5/85



To judge the size the entire wooden frame with glass measures about 21-1/8'' x 17-1/8'' x 3/4''. It appears to be excellent condition with some water markes on the backing paper as pictured. It does not affect the photograph, matting, or the frame at all.

Below here is one History of the U.S.S. Ohio SSBN-726 - SSGN-726 submarine:

U.S.S. OHIO SSGN 726



The USS Ohio (SSBN 726) is the first Trident class nuclear powered fleet ballistic missile submarine and the fourth United States vessel to bear the name of the 17th state of the union.

In the summer of 1981, sea trials were held to test the equipment and systems, and the submarine was delivered to the U.S. Navy on October 28, 1981. On November 11, the U.S.S. Ohio was commissioned. Capt. A. K. Thompson assumed command of the “Blue” Crew and Capt. A. F. Campbell assumed command of the “Gold”. Following Post Shakedown Availability (PSA) at Electric Boat Division, the Ohio left the Atlantic Ocean and transited to her new homeport, Bangor, Washington, by way of Cape Canaveral where she tested her missile launch systems and the Panama Canal, arriving on August 12, 1982. During August and September 1982, the first loadout of Trident C-4 missiles and a predeployment refit were conducted. Ohio and her Blue Crew departed on the first Trident Submarine Strategic Deterrent Patrol in October 1982 and returned on Dec. 10.

April 28, 1986 USS Ohio (Gold) successfully launched two Trident I (C4) missiles during a Follow on Operational Test. The Ohio completed the 50th Trident I patrol Nov. 22. April 17, 1989 SSBN 726 successfully launched two Trident I missiles in support of the 33nd Trident Follow on Operational Test. August 31, 1992 USS Ohio Gold Crew successfully launched two Trident I missiles during a Follow on CINC Evaluation Test. From July 1, 1993, to June 10, 1994, USS Ohio underwent engineered overhaul (EOH) at PSNS receiving extensive upgrades to sonar, fire control, and navigation systems. October 22, The Ohio Gold Crew successfully launched a Trident I (C4) DASO missile. The U.S.S. Ohio resumed strategic deterrent patrols on January 25, 1995, as part of Submarine Squadron Seventeen, Submarine Group Nine, Pacific Submarine Force. May 16, 1996 The Ohio successfully launched four Trident I missiles during a Follow on CINC Evaluation Test. December 9, 2001 USS Ohio successfully launched four C4 missiles during a Follow-on CINC Evaluation Test. Also successfully launched four missiles Dec. 18.

SSBN 726 has been out of service since October 1, 2002, for conversion to guided missile submarine class (SSGN) at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. She began its engineered refueling overhaul (ERO) in November 2002 and began conversion work November 19, 2003. Four Ohio class strategic missile submarines, USS Ohio, USS Michigan (SSBN 727), USS Florida (SSBN 728), and USS Georgia (SSBN 729) have been selected for transformation into a new platform, designated SSGN. Twenty-two of the 24 missile tubes on each boat are being retrofitted to carry up to seven Tomahawk cruise missiles, for a maximum load out of 154 missiles per boat. The remaining two tubes are being converted into Lock-in/Lock-out chambers for use by Special Operations Forces (SOF). Each SSGN will be able to carry and support up to 66 Special Operation Forces for an extended period of time. These ships will have a specialized planning area, physical fitness equipment, and laser shooting ranges for use by the Operators. Further, SSGN will be able to carry two Advanced SEAL (Sea, Air, Land) Delivery Systems, two Dry Deck Shelters, or one of each using the lock-in/lock-out chambers as their docking sites. Another advantage of SSGNs’ size will be its ability to carry an increased payload. In the future, this capacity will allow for the launch and recovery of unmanned undersea vehicles (UUV). As new capabilities and equipment are developed, they can be inserted relatively easily into SSGNs thanks to its Open Architecture computing systems and the related ability to rapidly integrate new technologies and payloads. SSGN can also offer significant opportunities to serve as a test platform to develop future weapons, sensors and operational concepts.

December 19, 2005 USS Ohio (SSGN 726), commanded by Cmdr. Michael Cockey, returned to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Facility in Bremerton, Wash, after completing sea trials. February 7, 2006 USS Ohio returned to active service in a ceremony held at Naval Base Kitsap - Bangor. Annie Glenn, the ship’s sponsor, presented the crew a ship’s patch worn by Sen. John Glenn on his return to space in 1998. The patch was autographed by all seven astronauts aboard the shuttle and will now be displayed in the wardroom. October 26, The guided missile submarine returned home after becoming the first Ohio class ship to complete sea and hydrodynamic trials with recently installed dual dry deck shelters (DDS) for Special Operations Forces. November 20, USS Ohio pulled to Naval Station Pearl Harbor for a scheduled port visit. SSGN 726 is currently conducting training exercises and work ups in the Hawaiian islands in preparation for its maiden deployment next year. January 21, 2007 USS Ohio (Gold) Sailors, commanded by Capt. Andrew Hale, departed Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor, for Pearl Harbor to conduct a crew swap with Ohio (Blue) crew. The Gold crew gathered at NBK’s liberty center before traveling to McCord Air Force Base to catch their plane to Hawaii. This is the first time in approximately 20 years that a submarine crew has done a crew swap in this fashion. Eventually, the submarine crews will fly out to Guam and swap about every three months, and the ship will return home approximately once a year. October 14, USS Ohio (Blue) departed homeport for its maiden deployment as a guided missile submarine to the western Pacific. January 10, 2008 SSGN 726 arrived to Apra Harbor, Guam, for a Crew Swap.
