Destroyer returns from sea trial

PASCAGOULA, Miss. - The Aegis guided missile destroyer Gravely successfully completed its sea trial last week in the Gulf of Mexico. The DDG 107's successful sea trial paved the way for delivery from the Pascagoula yard to the Navy later this summer, the company said. Gravely is the 27th destroyer to be built at Northrop Grumman's Pascagoula yard. (Source: Mississippi Press, 06/30/10)
