190322-N-AP176-0011 ATLANTIC OCEAN (March 22, 2019) A sailor assigned to Royal Fleet Auxiliary landing ship dock Mounts Bay directs an MH-60S Sea Hawk, assigned to the Dragon Whales of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 28, onto the flight deck during a mine countermeasures (MCM) task group experiment. This experiment, held aboard Mounts Bay, refines and advances the Navy explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) community's ability to command and control an MCM task group. The Navy EOD community achieves this by embarking vessels of opportunity to direct surface, air and expeditionary MCM forces, including the Navy's Expeditionary MCM (ExMCM) units.
