His Crew\u2019s Response Was Perfect"},"content":{"rendered":"

There was one especially fun moment during TODAY\u2019s Fourth of July celebration on New York Harbor \u2014 Jenna Bush Hager and Al Roker<\/a> found themselves reporting from two famous ships and made sure to greet each other from across the water.<\/p>\n

Jenna spent the morning aboard the legendary Queen Mary 2, while Roker got a firsthand look at life on the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Eagle, the only tall ship in active U.S. military service.<\/p>\n

As the two vessels came within sight of one another, Jenna spotted her colleague, held up a \u201cWhere\u2019s Al Roker?\u201d sign and waved. <\/p>\n

A video shared on TODAY\u2019s Instagram page <\/a>captured the wholesome interaction. <\/p>\n

\u201cHi, Al!\u201d Jenna calls out in the video.<\/p>\n

The greeting was immediately met with cheers from Al\u2019s ship, where crew members and cadets shouted back, \u201cJENNA!\u201d<\/p>\n

Before the friendly exchange, Al had already been put to work.<\/p>\n

His first assignment? Washing pots and pans in the ship\u2019s scullery alongside cadets preparing meals for the crew.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis never stops,\u201d Al joked. \u201cGood grief!\u201d<\/p>\n
