>(For the benefit of those not familiar with the area The Ship Yard is

located at Portsmouth, VA. When it >was built there was another
Portsmouth Ship yard in New Hampshire. So they called the one in
Portsmouth, >Virginia The Norfolk.Naval Shipyard.)

For your continued amusement, it's worth noting that the Portsmouth
Naval Shipyard is actually in Kittery, Maine.
