Fireman Ruben Guerrero, center, assigned to future

Fireman Ruben Guerrero, center, assigned to future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6), plays the role of a facial burn victim as other crew members treat the injury during a general quarters drill aboard the ship. America is the first ship of its class, replacing the Tarawa-class of amphibious assault ships. As the next generation “big-deck” amphibious assault ship, America is optimized for aviation, capable of supporting current and future aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey and F-35B Joint Strike Fighter. The ship is scheduled to be ceremoniously commissioned Oct. 11 in San Francisco. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Huey D. Younger Jr./Released)
