U.S. service members aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Bataan (LHD 5) prepare to transfer rescued people to the armed forces of Malta offshore patrol vessel P61 in the Mediterranean Sea June 6, 2014. The Bataan and the guided missile frigate USS Elrod (FFG 55) rendered assistance and provided food, water, medical attention and temporary shelter to about 282 persons after receiving a report that an Italian military marine patrol aircraft sighted six small vessels, one of which was sinking. The Bataan, with elements of the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit, operated in the U.S. 6th Fleet area of responsibility to augment U.S. Crisis Response forces in the region.
