Yesterday I attended the commissioning ceremony of LHA 6, the USS America. The first of her class as a new amphibious warship. I did go kilted but was the only one there in a kilt. I did however get asked to pose for photos several times while in the hangar deck for an informal breakfast before the ceremony.
