The helicopter was able to safely transport the man to a nearby hospital. Amsterdam is currently conducting maritime security operations (MSO). Maritime security operations (MSO) help set the conditions for security and stability in the maritime environment as well as complement the counter-terrorism and security efforts of regional nations. MSO deny international terrorists use of the maritime environment as a venue for attack or to transport personnel, weapons or other material. U.S. Navy photo by Journalist 3rd Class Bobby Northnagle
