DESTROYER SINKING-REEF

ABOARD THE MV DELAWARE (AP) -- A former Navy destroyer will now be an attraction -- for fish. The Arthur W. Radford was sunk off of the East Coast yesterday, to become part of an artificial reef. The ship was retired in 2003 after 26 years of Navy service. The Radford joins old New York City subway cars on the bottom of the Atlantic. The objects create habitats for sea life and new opportunities for deep-sea anglers and scuba divers.
