| Thomaston was already drydocked for cleaning 3 weeks ago. She was undocked on Monday and left Mare Island for Texas 2 days ago, so yes, this is Point Defiance. Sperry is scheduled to be towed next on the 28th. |

It is either the ex USS Thomaston or USS Point Defiance, both of which were laid up at Suisun Bay in 1998.
