USS Jason Dunham (DDG 109)

NORFOLK (Aug. 25, 2011) A tugboat helps the guided-missile destroyer USS Jason Dunham (DDG 109) into the harbor at Naval Station Norfolk ahead of Hurricane Irene. Vice Adm. Daniel Holloway, commander of U.S. 2nd Fleet, ordered all ships in the Hampton Roads area to set Sortie Condition Alpha. Ships in the area are departing early Thursday morning, Aug. 25. Irene's current track indicates it will pass off the North Carolina and Virginia coasts late Saturday as a Category 3 hurricane.
