Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Adm. Jonathan Greenert and platform members applaud former U.S. Sen. John Glenn after his daughter Lyn Glenn, the ship's sponsor, broke a bottle of champagne on the hul to officially christen Mobile Landing Platform (MLP 2) John Glenn. The ship, named in honor of U.S. senator, astronaut and Marine Corps pilot John Glenn, represents the newest platform in Navy-Marine Corps integration that will enable sailors and Marines to be where it matters, when it matters for amphibious operations or humanitarian and disaster relief efforts among other roles.
