Cover Girl!

Turns out the USS Key West is quite the glamour girl! She made the cover of a book and a magazine!

"SSN"

ISBN-10: 1568959346
ISBN-13: 978-1568959344

The USS Key West strikes a pose for the cover of Tom Clancy's "SSN." The book isn't really a novel, but more of a companion piece to the game "SSN" which features the USS Cheyenne (SSN 773). The Cheyenne might be newer, but I guess we know--by who made the cover--which boat is prettier!
