    Chief Warant Officer 2 Latonya Wallace, air bosun on board the forward-deployed amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2), heads down the flight deck to supervise the launch of a CH-53E Sea Stallion helicopter, assigned to Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 262 (HMM-262). HMM-262 is debarking Essex to return to the U.S. as a part of their scheduled overseas rotation. Essex, commanded by Capt. Brent Canady, is the lead ship of the only forward-deployed expeditionary strike group and serves as the flagship for CTF 76, the Navy's only forward-deployed amphibious force commander. Task Force 76 is headquartered at White Beach Naval Facility, Okinawa, Japan, with a detachment in Sasebo, Japan. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Mark R.
