    The guided-missile frigate USS Nicholas (FFG 47) passes the guided-missile frigate USS Kauffmann (FFG 59) as it departs Naval Station Norfolk ahead of Hurricane Irene. Vice Adm. Daniel Holloway, commander of U.S. 2nd Fleet, ordered all ships in the Hampton Roads area to set Sortie Condition Alpha. Ships in the area are departing early Thursday morning, Aug. 25. Irene's current track indicates it will pass off the North Carolina and Virginia coasts late Saturday as a Category 3 hurricane. (U.S. Navy photo by Petty Officer 2nd Class Aaron Chase/Released)
