Pacific Ocean (May 20, 2003) -- The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS
Milius (DDG 69) fires its 54-caliber (Mk 45) lightweight gun.
The
Mk45 provides surface combatants accurate naval gunfire against fast,
highly maneuverable surface targets, air threats and shore targets
during amphibious operations. Milius is returning from a
deployment in which it supported Operations Southern Watch, Enduring
Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 2nd
