Jay Kenney watched as the USS McFaul passed Castle Island on its way into port this morning.

I don't think it's the Mahan
The number on the bow in the photo is 74, the Mahan is 72...
74 is the USS McFaul: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_McFaul_(DDG-74)
Thanks
Fixed.
Captain of DDG 74
is Commander Gunther from Windsor Locks CT.
