A Navy veteran who served as a captain on the U.S.S. Nautilus nuclear submarine turned 100 recently, a newspaper in Washington state reported Sunday.

Frank Fogarty, who turned 100 on April 24, told the Spokane, Wash. Spokesman-Review of joining the Nautilus crew in the 1950s. In the article, Fogerty recalled meeting Adm. Hyman Rickover, regarded as the father of the nuclear Navy.
