On Memorial Day, hundreds of sailors from the USS Carl Vinson participated in a Fleet Week event on L.A.'s 6th Street Bridge, which included performances, speeches, and a moment of silence for fallen service members. The event, part of the Navy's public outreach, saw sailors enjoying food trucks and exploring the city, though attendance was lower than expected.
