230405-N-LK647-1016 NAVAL STATION NORFOLK (April 5, 2023) Ens. Rafael Hiciano, assigned to the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Normandy (CG 60), right, poses for a photo with his wife, Cora Diaz, and their son, Aidan R. Hiciano-Diaz, prior to a christening ceremony while the ship is in home port with the Ford Carrier Strike Group, April 5, 2023. The tradition of performing consecrations or baptisms using a ship’s bell originated with the British Navy, but is maintained by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard and is considered good luck.
