Bidding Opens for California Home for USS Iowa
California towns may bid to house the USS Iowa now moored at Suisun Bay. Sen. Feinstein and Rep. Pombo won approval to let any California city compete, with San Francisco seeking the ship after earlier moves to block and amid debates on local support and pacifist history. The Navy could pick a winner within a year if defense authorization passes.
