NAVAL BASE SAN DIEGO (June 26, 2021) – Sailors assigned to the Independence-variant littoral combat ship USS Mobile (LCS 26) place a command banner on the brow of the ship after arriving at its homeport Naval Base San Diego for the first time. The Navy commissioned Mobile, May 22, 2021 during a ceremony in Mobile, Alabama. It is the 15th LCS homeported in San Diego and the 23rd LCS to enter the fleet. Littoral combat ships are a fast, agile, mission-focused platform designed to operate in near-shore environments, winning against 21st-century coastal threats. LCS are capable of supporting forward presence, maritime security, sea control, and deterrence. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Vance Hand/Released)
