at the stern of the U.S.S. Carter Hall (LSD-50) after completing a
beach landing assault exercise during the Blue/Green work-up operation
off the coast of Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. This operation provided
training and preparation for the annual Unitas XL-99 deployment to
Central and South America, which promotes interoperability and
cultivates stronger ties with our foreign allies. (Official
