US Navy Blue Angels enter Baltimore Harbor

The U.S. Navy’s Blue Angels Flight Demonstration Team, flies their F/A-18 Hornet aircraft over the deck of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Sledge (WLIC 75303) and its embarked distinguished visitors, including the parents of Blue Angel 2’s pilot, Lt. John Hiltz of Fort Mitchell, Ky. The team performed for a crowd of 75,000 people during Baltimore’s Star Spangled Sailabration, commemorating the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 and the writing of the national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner." Naval vessels from the United States and other maritime nations are commemorating the Bicentennial. The F/A-18 Hornet aircraft and other aircraft types in the Navy and Marine Corps inventory, are a component of the assets that enable the Navy’s ability to operate forward and ensure freedom of the seas for commerce, travel and basic human rights, which is a fundamental mission of the U.S. Navy, Marines and Coast Guard.
