Fleet Week lands on the shores of South Florida this week, bringing five U.S. Navy ships; one Coast Guard cutter; and 2,500 sailors, Marines and Coast Guard personnel to our sunny shores.
Festivities (unofficially) kicked off with All Hands on Deck, a party to bring civilians and America's heroes together at the Seminole Hard Rock & Casino.
On Monday, hundreds of family and friends lined the dock at Port Everglades waiting for their loved ones. (Click here to read the Miami Herald's article on the scene).
The soldiers will take time off to visit South Florida attractions and spend time with their friends and family. For a photo gallery of Fleet week, click here.
Events honoring the men and women who serve our country are open to the public and are happening all around the area.
