USS Casimir Pulaski (SSBN-633)

USS Casimir Pulaski (SSBN-633) was a James Madison-class fleet ballistic missile submarine commissioned by the United States Navy in 1964. Named after the Polish-American Revolutionary War hero Casimir Pulaski, the submarine played a crucial role in the U.S. nuclear deterrent force during the Cold War. Over its service life, Pulaski completed numerous strategic deterrent patrols, carrying Polaris and later Poseidon ballistic missiles. The vessel was decommissioned in 1994, following the end of the Cold War and subsequent arms reduction treaties.
