 Welcome to All Hands Update. We're here in Baltimore during Maryland's fleet week, preparing for the commissioning of the Navy's newest warship. The Zumult is the largest, most lethal and sophisticated destroyer ever built. It is a lead ship of the next generation destroyer with a state-of-the-art electric propulsion system, wave-piercing tumble-home hull, and stealth design. DDG-1000 has the versatility to reduce future costs and increase time on station. Zumult embodies the legacy of war-fighting excellence and innovation of Admiral Elmo R. Zumult, Jr., a veteran of World War II, Korea and Vietnam. Admiral Zumult was the 19th Chief of Naval Operations and known for his devotion to sailors and creating a Navy where everyone was treated equally. The Zumult commissioning ceremony is scheduled for October 15. All Hands Magazine has the latest on Zumult's capabilities and crew. For more information, visit ah.mil.
