The U.S. Navy made history on Saturday by commissioning its first-ever coed submarine, the USS New Jersey, marking a new era of inclusivity beneath the oceans’ surface.
“USS New Jersey (SSN 796) is now commissioned and ready for service!” the Navy proudly announced in a post on X. “The Navy’s latest Virginia-class submarine joins the fleet.”
USS New Jersey is the “first fully integrated submarine built for both male and female sailors” in the 100-year history of submarines, according to the video posted by the Navy.
