Correct. It's interesting that the McKee was the newest of the 3, but that's the one they decided to decommission. It's a unique USNS platform now b/c it has the largest active duty component on any of the USNS/MSC platforms. Sounds like they are extremely busy (as they were when I was onboard). The Navy needs more tenders but there are no plans to build them.
