US Naval Hospital ship Mercy...

[Bruin Steve]

...is now, as of this morning, docked at the World Cruise Terminal in San Pedro...

Certainly a different sight than usual...

Our tax money at work and an excellent use of it.

Normally she is docked in San Diego at the 32nd Street Naval Station. We will miss her while she is deployed to our neighbors to our north...

 

They are not going to put COVID-19 patients aboard her though. She will be used for other hospitalized patients in order to free-up beds in the shoreside hospitals in the greater LA area.
