Current United States Warships-- Part 2: The USS Billings (LCS-15)

From the October 2020 Paralyzed Veterans of America 2021 Calendar.

USS BILLINGS

The Freedom-class littoral combat ship USS Billings  (LCS-15) departs from the Naval Station Mayport as Commander, U.S. 4th Fleet orders all U.S. Navy ships homeported in the area to sortie ahead of Hurricane Dorian, which is forecasted to bring high winds and heavy rain to the East Coast.

Ships are being directed to areas of the Atlantic where they are best postured for storm avoidance.

Hurricane Dorian formed August 24, 2019 and dissipated  September 10.

Amazing how much these LCS ships look like the old Confederate ironclads.  Perhaps we should start calling then CSS.
