The future USS Zumwalt (DDG 1000) gets underway in Bath, Maine to join the fleet. The guided-missile destroyer is the lead ship in the Zumwalt class and the first ship to be named for Adm. Elmo Zumwalt. <br /> <br />After commissioning in Baltimore, Maryland, on Oct. 15, the ship will sail to its homeport in San Diego. Soon after arriving, DDG-1000 will enter a post-delivery industrial availability and mission systems activation period to ready this stealth destroyer for operational testing and its maiden deployment.
