Summary
150519-N-LD343-003 POINT LOMA, California (May 19, 2015) Air Traffic Controlman 3rd Class Ryan Fitzpatrick, assigned to amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6), helps palletize de-energized electrical cables after the ship received a magnetic treatment (DEPERM) at Naval Base Point Loma Magnetic Silencing Facility. The DEPERM process reduces the electromagnetic signature of a ship in order to limit its exposure to undersea mine detection. America is the first ship of its class and is optimized for Marine Corps aviation. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Demetrius Kennon/Released)
