Welcome

Congratulations on your assignment to USS Whidbey Island (LSD 41) "First in Class. First Always." You are about to embark on the most rewarding and challenging tours of your naval career. USS Whidbey Island officers and crew have set very high standards and the ship's reputation speaks for itself. As the best ship on the East Coast, the officers, chiefs and crew aboard, together with elements of a Marine expeditionary unit and other detachments, perform as an integrated amphibious warfare blue/green team.
