SOUTH CHINA SEA (Oct. 13, 2016) Lt. Mitch Pulver looks through binoculars as the guided-missile destroyer USS Decatur (DDG 73) sails in formation with the amphibious assault ship Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) during a photo exercise as part of interoperability drills between the Pacific Surface Action Group (PAC SAG) and the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group (BHR ESG). The drills are meant to enhance readiness of cruiser-destroyer ships to rapidly integrate with an amphibious task force to provide increased capability for amphibious operations in support of crisis response or disaster relief.
