The USS California, one of only two nuclear-powered cruisers remaining
in service for the US Navy, will spend its last year before being decommissioned
patrolling the seas for drug smugglers. The California is currently on
its way to Panama. It will spend time in both the Caribbean and in the
Pacific monitoring naval traffic and intercepting suspected drug smugglers
before returning to its base in Bramerton. It will be decommissioned in
early 1999.
