Rear Adm. Ann Claire Phillips, commander, Expeditionary Strike Group Two, addresses officers, enlisted personnel and civilians gathered at the D-Day museum in New Orleans for the 1812 commemoration Gala, April 20. Phillips' flagship is the USS Wasp which arrived on the 17th as part of Navy Week New Orleans. Wasp is in New Orleans, April 17-23, to celebrate Navy Week New Orleans - a Bicentennial of the War of 1812 commemorative event.
Approximately 3,000 sailors and Marines, nine ships from the United States, France, Canada, Great Britain, Ecuador, and Indonesia, and about three dozen aircraft are involved in the Navy Week events. The commemoration of the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 is a salute to all sailors and Marines who fought gallantly in that conflict, who have served in out nations' conflicts since then, and who are defending freedom around the world today.
