Great day for the US Navy and for our nation! Hope this ship never encounters hostilities, but if it does the outcome is one sided and swift! Thanks to the 315 brave men and women who are stationed aboard.

Does it REALLY matter? Do it in a blue state and see what happens.

The ship is a little over 500 feet long and displaces roughly 9200 tons. It cost around 2 billion dollars and is outfitted with the latest electronics and weapons systems. Potentially, it is one of the deadliest ships on the ocean.

So, conservatives and FR have caved in to the lunacy of putting women on warships?

🤔. Massive? Must be the new definition. 😹. Been to a couple of commissionings. Awesome and brought a tear to my eyes both times. Fair winds and following seas.

Interesting to me as my first gray ship assignment was on FFG60 Rodney M Davis which was also named after a black marine in Vietnam who jumped on a grenade.
