Coastal patrol craft USS Typhoon, foreground, and Military Sealift Command container ship USNS Sgt. William R. Button line up in formation to conduct operations, during Exercise Lucky Mariner 2012. The exercise emphasizes cooperation between organizations and representatives of the shipping industry, which is critical when responding to a crisis in the maritime environment. The training also promotes military-to-civilian relationships and improves the tactical proficiency of the coalition, as well as enhances regional security in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of responsibility. Typhoon is assigned to Commander, Task Force 55, supporting maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts in the U.S. 5th Fleet AOR.
