Naval Station Norfolk, Va. (Jun. 13, 2003) -- A line handling detail assists with mooring operations for the amphibious command and control ship USS Mt. Whitney (LCC/JCC 20), as it returns to its homeport of Naval Station Norfolk.   Mount Whitney completed a seven-month deployment as the flagship of Commander, Joint Task Force – Horn of Africa (CJTF-HOA).  The most sophisticated command, control, communications, computer and intelligence (C4I) ship ever commissioned, Mount Whitney incorporates various elements of the most advanced C4I equipment available today.  Mount Whitney departed Nov. 12, 2002, in support of the ongoing war on terrorism and Operation Enduring Freedom.  U.S. Navy photo by Chief Photographer's Mate Thomas Coffelt.
