Events of The Last Ship[]
The United States Navy was decimated during the outbreak with the only known United States Navy Vessel to remain in operation at the height of the outbreak being the USS Nathan James, whose crew was sent on a secret operation in search of a cure for the virus that was killing millions worldwide.
The USS Nathan James found the cure, and the United States Navy has since begun to rebuild. It has at least three operational ships operating in the Pacific Theatre, all destroyers. Captain Chandler was promoted to the Chief of Naval Operations under President Michener.
Naval Station Norfolk, Navy Base San Diego and Naval Station Pearl Harbor are the only known still operational US Navy bases.
