We thank you today for joining us aboard the George H.W.
Bush Freedom at Work, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 12.
We are grateful to have you here today to witness not only the size and scope of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, but to showcase how the men and women of the Team Avenger bring 100,000 tons of American steel to life.
Our sailors are trained and ready to fight with the right skills, equipment, and warrior ethos to protect the American interest around the globe.
The platform steam and the events experienced today will encompass the full power and might of the United States Navy.
You will see fast attack submarines, live fires from eight Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyers, Navy SEALs fast roping from a helicopter to a destroyer, and finally an air power demonstration featuring a full complement of the carrier air wing showing the unmatched power of U.S.
Naval Aviation.
Now, be prepared to be amazed as our Navy demonstrates the impressive capabilities of the most powerful naval force the world has ever seen.
The helicopter bringing President Trump out.
Captain Morgan, you're very familiar with helicopters in the Navy, sir?
Yes.
Right there, that's a... Commander-in-Chief's gonna join, gonna hit the deck here in a moment.
You saw the... We're gonna have a narrator for the entire exercise.
I believe that actually the president is going to go up to the bridge and view it with the first lady from the bridge.
Admiral Masso, what do you anticipate we're going to see here when things get up and running?
Well, I think we're going to see a lot of activity.
As I had said, you know, they talked about fast roping seals off helicopters, Navy gunfire support missions, things of that nature.
It's going to be loud and proud and very impressive.
Admiral, here we go, the Commander-in-Chief's coming out.
Admiral, real quickly, drones and changing the nature of surface warfare, your thoughts?
