Salute, God speed and be safe. Fast ships going into harms way!!
Today I was witness to a wonderfull site as the newest naval ship passed to sea to join the fleet. The USS Michael Murphy built in Bath, Maine traveled down the Kennebec River from its place of birth Bath, Maine. As it passed Fort Popham at the mouth of the river a large gathering was there to witness this site a say goodby and hello to the ship. Hope you enjoy my small video and tribute to the ship and crew who man her.

That's really neat thanks for posting. May the good Lord be with those guys and their families. Great to see a new ship get underway for the first time. I just don't envy those sailors for all the drills they are going to have to go through the next 30 days.

In our government-controlled schools we are taught that Lincoln was our greatest president because his war ended slavery and saved the Union. As usual, the other side of the story – the side that reflects poorly on the government – somehow gets lost. – Richard J. Maybury, The Abe Lincoln Hoax
