Just as the U.S. Air Force sends obsolete warbirds to the Arizona desert for storage and disassembly, the U.S.

Navy maintains a number of harbors for its obsolete vessels.

Get an admiral's tour of these naval storage harbors in Philadelphia, Norfolk, Pearl Harbor, and Bremerton, Washington, where once-proud fighting vessels await reassignment, sale, or the cutting torch.

Follow the entire disassembly process from start to finish, and discover the special processes used when handling nuclear submarines.
