The above named USN amphibious assault ship has been on fire at San Diego since Sunday.
The ship was undergoing routine maintence whe she caught fire. Shortly after she caught fire there was an explosion.
No weapons are onboard, all had been removed.
Naval and Civilian fire crews are trying to control the fire.
