10/12/2014: Marines and Sailors assigned to USS America (LHA 6) man the rails as the ship pulls into port for Fleet Week San Francisco, Oct. 6, 2014.

During Fleet Week, Marine units demonstrated assets available for the Bay Area in response to a sudden crisis.

The intent was to showcase amphibious nature, readiness and the ability to respond to disasters and highlight the role the Navy-Marine Corps team can play in assisting disaster victims.
