Aboard the USS New York for Veterans Day

Mikro and Kev enjoyed climbing aboard an AAV-7 (amphibious assault vehicle), a riverboat, an LCAC (Landing Craft Air Cushioned), a deuce and a half truck, and an Osprey VTOL aircraft aboard the USS New York on Veterans Day. They also got to check out the small arms, and got a look at a Cobra attack helicopter up on the flight deck.

We all took the opportunity to thank the sailors and marines on duty for their service to our country.

My Dad served in the US Navy during the Korean War, and I am glad Mikro got a look at what life on a Navy ship is like.
