Gas Turbine System Technician (Mechanical) 2nd Class James Howard, assigned to Assault Craft Unit 4, while attached aboard USS Wasp (LHD 1), gives a presentation on a Landing Craft Unit to students of Stuart Hall Middle School in the well deck of Wasp during a ship tour April 19. Wasp is in New Orleans April 17-23 for the War of 1812 Bicentennial Commemoration Fleet Week. Overall, there will be about 3,000 sailors and Marines, nine ships and about three dozen aircraft in attendance. Visiting ships are from the United States, France, Canada, Great Britain, Ecuador and Indonesia. The commemoration is a salute to all sailors and Marines who fought gallantly in that conflict, who have served in our nations' conflicts since then and who are defending freedom around the world today.
