Sailors and visitors stand on the flightdeck of USS Winston S. Churchill (DDG 81) to watch a parade pass during the International Festival of the Sea in Portsmouth, England. The Norfolk, Va.-based destroyer is making its first deployment to the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland and Norway from Aug. 22 to Oct. 19, 2001, and is the only U.S. Navy vessel in active service named after a foreign dignitary. The ship is named in honor of Sir Winston Spencer Leonard Churchill (1874-1965), best known for his courageous leadership as British Prime Minister during World War II.
