 Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Tony Rosa. These are your headlines from around the fleet. The Secretary of the Navy visited the future USS America as it transited the Strait of Magellan during its maiden voyage August 19th. Ray Mabus ate dinner with the crew and spoke at an All Hands call where he discussed his four P's, people, platforms, partnerships and power. America is the first of its class and is the next generation big-deck amphibious assault ship. The Chief of Naval Operations visited Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carter Rock Division and hosted an All Hands call August 19th, addressing scientists and engineers. Admiral Jonathan Greenert discussed littoral combat ships, America class ships, joint high-speed vessels and the DDG-1000 program. During the tour, Greenert saw a demonstration of the state-of-the-art maneuvering and sea-keeping WaveMaker facility. The WaveMaker holds 12 million gallons of water and it creates realistic ocean environments.
