Navy ship sunk as artificial reef

May 17, 2012 marks the 10th anniversary of the former 510-foot, US Navy landing ship dock's scuttling to become an artificial reef. The Spiegel Grove gained international attention May 17, 2002, when it sank prematurely and rolled over leaving its upside-down bow protruding above the sea, before salvagers sank it fully on its side three weeks later and Hurricane Dennis helped to set it upright in July 2005.
