"We got underway from our building yard in Pascagoula, Mississippi on Aug. 11 and this is our very first stop on our maiden voyage," said USS Murtha Operations Officer, Lt. Cmdr. Will Ashley. "This is my first pre-commissioned ship and to be able to see the progress from the building phase, to the trial phase and ultimately to crew the ship and take her out, is truly an honor." USS Murtha provided tours throughout the day, presenting a unique opportunity for the residents of NSGB and Joint Task Force Guantanamo Bay to see the Navy's newest amphibious ship.
