 Thousands of gallons of water flood Dry Dock number six, bringing USS Curtis Wilbur off the keel blocks and out of the Dry Dock. It's really a tremendous step for the ship to be back floating. We've been on blocks and in the Dry Dock for the last four and a half months. It's been a huge opportunity to get needed maintenance done for Curtis Wilbur. Flooding the Dry Dock and moving the ship to the pier brings Curtis Wilbur one step closer to being fully operational. Although the ship only moves a matter of feet to the pier, there's a major morale boost for the crew. This is a great milestone for every single one of our crew members and every single one of our 300 on the crew has worked tirelessly and in a spot where we have watched other people doing what we wish that we were doing. As maintenance continues to prepare the ship for deployment, the crew can't wait to be out to sea again. Ready Officer Chris Henry, Yuko's Gendable Base, Japan.
