US Navy Vessels Rendezvous in the Caribbean Sea

Authorities

On May 3 two US Navy vessels met in the Caribbean Sea for a replenishment-at-sea.

 

As the hospital ship USNS Comfort (T-AH 20) was sailing to Jamaica for Continuing Promise 2015, it met with the Military Sealift Command fleet replenishment oiler USNS Big Horn (T-AO 198) and engaged in RAS.

Continuing Promise is a U.S. Southern Command-sponsored and U.S. Naval Forces Southern Command/U.S. 4th Fleet-conducted deployment to conduct civil-military operations including humanitarian-civil assistance, subject matter expert exchanges, medical, dental, veterinary and engineering support and disaster response to partner nations and to show U.S. support and commitment to Central and South America and the Caribbean.
