This morning at the Naval Station Norfolk the USS GEORGE H. W. BUSH CNV-77 was commissioned. The aircraft carrier was built right here in Newport News at Northrop Grumman the former Newport News Shipyard. What a beautiful floating air station she is. What an impressive and beautiful ceremony it was watching this ship be commissioned and come to life during the playing of "Anchors Aweigh".
Just watching on TV was an awesome and moving experience. I only can imagine how moving it must have been to have been there in person to witness it.

May God Bless All Whom Sail Upon Her!
