🎉Welcome to the fleet, USS Nantucket (LCS 27)! 🎉 The U.S. Navy's newest Freedom-variant littoral combat ship #USSNantucket (LCS 27) was commissioned today in a ceremony in #Boston, Mass., docked alongside the U.S. Navy's oldest ship, USS Constitution. Local legend, #USNavy veteran and Medal of Honor recipient Thomas Kelley, a retired Navy captain, presented the long glass to the Officer of the Deck Lt.
