Quote "Obviously it’s a symbolic laying of the foundation for the structural ship itself. In addition to that, what’s really important to us it’s also the initial manning of the submarine," PCU Delaware Commanding Officer Commander Brian Hogan told NewsChannel 3's Todd Corillo Friday.

No mention of the gender makeup of the crew or whether there are separate quarters for female crew members?  Obviously an oversight.
