SANTA RITA, Guam (Nov. 2, 2015) – Sailors and Military Sealift Command personnel assigned to the submarine tender USS Emory S. Land (AS 39) hoist a submarine periscope from the pier to be loaded onto the ship. This evolution renewed a capability that has not been employed for nearly a decade. Submarine tenders stocked with vital spare parts, such as a periscope, are a key aspect of providing repair support to submarines and keeping them fully operational. Emory S. Land is a forward deployed expeditionary submarine tender on an extended deployment conducting coordinated tended moorings and afloat maintenance in the U.S. 5th and 7th Fleet areas of responsibility.
