*Sailor Language!* *Parentel Discretion Advised!* The USS Cape St. George pulls along the starboard side of the USS Abraham Lincoln to ring in the new year. A shipmate of mine caught this on his cell phone (I was standing beside him) and he let me have a copy. The loud horn-like noise that can be heard is the Close-In Weapons System (CIWS) shooting off 3000 rounds per second. In the video the CIWS sounds loud but when it is heard in person it is startling. The only word I have to adequately describe the sound of that weapon is 'biblical'.
