(August 3, 2023)--The crane from the dry cargo ammunition ship USNS William McLean (T-AKE 12) sends simulated ordnance to the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Porter (DDG 78) to be stowed in the DDG's MK 71 Vertical Launch System (VLS), during a VLS re-arm demonstration, held pier-side on Naval Station Norfolk, Aug. 3.
