GULF OF TADJOURA (August 21, 2021) U.S. Navy Capt. David J. Faehnle, commanding officer of Camp
Lemonnier, scans the coastline during a ride-along with Maritime Expeditionary Security Squadron
Eleven (MSRON-11) in the Gulf of Tadjoura, Aug. 21, 2021. The Task Group provides port and harbor
security, high-value asset protection and maritime security operations in coastal waterways of the Gulf
of Tadjoura. The Task Group includes the MSRON-11 security boat detachment and EOD Platoon 8-2-1,
which sweeps the port for explosives as needed. Navy Expeditionary Combat Command in Little Creek,
Virginia supports both units. Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti (CLDJ) serves as an expeditionary base for U.S.
military forces providing support to ships, aircraft, and personnel that ensure security throughout
Europe, Africa and Southwest Asia. CLDJ enables maritime and combat operations in the Horn of Africa
while fostering positive U.S.-Africa relations. The base is also home to Combined Joint Task Force-Horn
of Africa, which works with partner nations, coalition forces and interagency/intergovernmental
organizations to achieve a unified effort in East Africa. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication
