USS Jack (SSN-605)
, a in commission from 1967 to 1990, was the second ship of the United States Navy to be named for the jack, a name of fish applied to any young pike, large California rockfish, or green pike or pickerel. She saw extensive service during the Cold War.
==Construction and commissioning==
The contract to build ''Jack'' was awarded to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, on 13 March 1959 and her keel was laid down there on 16 September 1960. She was launched on 24 April 1963, sponsored by Mrs. Grace Groves, the wife of Lieutenant General Leslie R. Groves, who had been the head of the Manhattan Project. She was commissioned on 31 March 1967, with Commander Louis T. Urbanczyk, Jr., in command. The principal speaker at her commissioning ceremony was Rear Admiral James F. Calvert, USN, who served with distinction in the Pacific during World War II on ''Jacks predecessor, the submarine .
''Jack'' was a variation on the standard ''Permit''-class design. She was longer than her sisters and used an experimental direct-drive plant with two contra-rotating propellers on concentric shafts.
While ''Jack'' was under construction, her pre-commissioning crew won the annual Portsmouth Naval Shipyard "Admiral's Trophy" in 1966 for overall excellence in athletic competition during 1965. ''Jack'' was the first submarine to win the trophy.
