ALBANY — As citizens of Albany go about their daily lives, members of the U.S. Navy’s “Silent Service” submarine force work beneath the ocean’s waves, continuing a tradition that only a small fraction of military members will ever know: strategic deterrence. Petty Officer 3rd Class Kevante Florence, assigned to USS Georgia, hails from Albany. He is a 2011 graduate of Monroe Comprehensive High School who takes on the task to execute one of the Defense Department’s most important mission of strategic deterrence.
