170302-N-NX690-018 ATLANTIC OCEAN (March 2, 2017) Fire Controlman 3rd Class Ericke Leon, from San Diego, inspects his ammunition for a .50-caliber machine gun aboard the guided-missile destroyer USS Mitscher (DDG 57) in preparation for live fire qualifications. The ship is operating in the Atlantic Fleet Training and Testing (AFTT) study area, which consists of approximately 2.6 million square nautical miles of open waters and designated airspace over the Atlantic Ocean along the eastern coast of North America, in portions of the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico, at select Navy pier side locations, within port transit channels, near select civilian ports, and in specific inland waters. The U.S. Navy participates in the National Environmental Policy Act process to assess the potential environmental impacts associated with conducting safe, yet realistic training environments for Sailors and testing systems within the AFTT study area.
