Navy's "Old Ironsides" Takes Independence Day Cruise

USS Constitution, the U.S. Navy's oldest ship and the oldest commissioned warship in the world, set sail in Boston Harbor to celebrate the Fourth of July. Five-hundred passengers, selected by lottery, had the chance to ride aboard "Old Ironsides." The crew of USS Constitution is made up entirely of active-duty sailors who wear period costumes, conduct tours and keep U.S. Navy history alive. (Video: Defense.gov)
