    Senegalese, Spanish and U.S. Ships Work Together to Train African Sailors

    Spanish navy sailors aboard the Spanish navy Servola-class offshore patrol vessel SPS Centinela, demonstrate how to combat a flight deck fire with a casualty for a group of African sailors from Africa Partnership Station Gunston Hall as part of a cross deck training exercise with ships from Spain, Senegal, and the United States. The African sailors received a tour of the Spanish ship and a full day of training in basic first aid, joint maneuvering drills, damage control, and weapons familiarization and observed a connected replenishment at sea before returning to Gunston Hall. Gunston Hall is on a scheduled deployment in West and Central Africa in support of APS West, an international initiative developed by Naval Forces Europe - Africa that aims to improve maritime safety and security in Africa.
