Pacific Ocean (May 4, 2006) - The guided-missile destroyer USS Curtis
Wilbur (DDG 54) tows the guided-missile destroyer USS Stethem (DDG 63)
during a towing exercise (TOWEX). Wilbur and Stethem are currently
participating in Multi-Sail 2006. Multi-Sail is an exercise that allows
ships in the Forward Deployed Naval Force to maximize their combat
readiness level by participating in maneuvering exercises between ships
and allows them to operate in a multi-ship environment. U.S. Navy photo
