The photos below were taken by me and show the GREEN MOUNTAIN STATE laid-up at Suisun Bay, Calif., on March 27, 2010. The ship was delivered as SS MORMACALTAIR in 1965 and subsequently served as a breakbulk ship. Later renamed SS AMERICAN ALTAIR, the MARAD acquired the ship in 1987 and converted it to a crane ship at NASSCO San Diego, Calif. Placed in service as SS GREEN MOUNTAIN STATE (T-ACS 9) in 1992, the ship was assigned to Maritime Prepositioning Squadron Three. The GREEN MOUNTAIN STATE was deactivated in July 2006.
