Culinary Specialist 3rd Class Jolie Brock, assigned to amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6), serves brownies to tiger cruise participants, Sailors and Marines during an ice cream social. Tiger cruises allow crewmembers an opportunity to bring family and friends on board for a short underway period. The program is designed to strengthen family ties and increase awareness and appreciation for the Navy and its mission through personal interaction and experience. America is the first ship of its class and the fourth to bear the name. She replaces the Tarawa-class of amphibious assault ship and is optimized for aviation and capable of supporting current and future aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey and F-35B Joint Strike Fighter.
