"A antique warship, her keel was laid down in 1891. They where getting ready to sell her for scrap since they couldn't keep up with maintenance costs."
You know, the 'USS=warship' thing isn't actually true. It just means the ship is flagged to the US, and is of suitable size. I've heard of cargo ships with the USS prefix, as well.
