Homewood native serves aboard warship named after United States of America

As a member of the U.S. Navy’s finest warships, Wingate said he and other Sailors are proud to be part of most capable amphibious force in the world
“This is America personified; the diversity, hard working crew and family atmosphere is what this country is all about,” said Wingate.
Sailors’ jobs are highly varied on America, according to Navy officials. Their job includes keeping all parts of the ship running smoothly—this includes everything from maintaining aircrafts and engines, processing paperwork, to handling weapons, and flying the aircraft.
Serving in the Navy, Wingate is learning about being a more responsible leader, Sailor and person through handling numerous responsibilities.
“The challenges that I have to deal with has made me more responsible, it’s strengthened my work ethic and its helped me mature a lot,” said Wingate.
