Mike Gilday, and U.S. Representative Lisa Blunt-Rochester (D-Del.) attend the USS Delaware (SSN 791) commissioning commemoration ceremony in Wilmington, Delaware, April 2, 2022. The submarine participated in a week-long commemoration of events in honor of the boat’s commissioning ceremony that took place administratively in April 2020 due to COVID restrictions at the time.
