 Welcome to All Hands Update. I'm Petty Officer Andrew Johnson. These are your headlines from around the fleet. The Navy welcomed the newest and most technologically advanced amphibious assault ship USS America to the fleet October 11th. America was commissioned during a formal ceremony witnessed by sailors, friends and family during San Francisco Fleet Week. The first of its class, America is optimized for aviation and capable of supporting current and future aircraft. For more information on USS America, visit the All Hands Magazine website. Sailors aboard USS Cole conducted a ceremony to remember the fallen sailors of the October 12, 2000 terrorist attack. 17 sailors were killed and 37 were wounded as a result of the attacks. The crew worked for 96 hours to restore vital systems and free their shipmates from the wreckage.
