The USS Georgia, a 42-year-old nuclear guided-missile submarine, has completed its final patrol and is set to be inactivated. The LCS Fort Worth has also decommissioned. Both warships have ended their service with the Navy, with the USS Georgia returning to Submarine Base Kings Bay, Ga., after its final deployment.
