Casabianca

Three Rubis-class submarines have already been retired — the Saphir in 2019, the Rubis in 2022 and the Casabianca in 2023.

It is needless to say that the dead steersman has been reverently removed from the place where he held his honourable watch and ward till death—a steadfastness as noble as that of the young Casabianca—and placed in the mortuary to await inquest.

“It’s perfect for whoever has an ax to grind,” Mr. Casabianca said, laughing.

Carlos Casabianca and Annika Moje, a couple from Alexandria, Virginia, visited Bad Axe for a creative date night.

The abiding image of him when England were bowled out for 129 was straight out of Casabianca: "The boy stood on the burning deck, whence all but he had fled."
