The first batch of Fleet Week photos are here! Flickr user jphillipobrien2006 was on hand to capture the excitement of the arriving military ships and planes. In this first roundup we're enjoying some dramatic images of the US Navy's Blue Angels air demonstration, a few F/A 18s and the delightful US Coast Guard sailing vessel USCGC Eagle.
