PACIFIC OCEAN (Dec. 6, 2022) – An 11m rigid hull inflatable boat (RHIB) launched from amphibious transport dock USS Anchorage (LPD 23) embarks for boat operations, Dec. 6, 2022. The mobility and sustainability provided by amphibious platforms gives our Navy/Marine Corps team an asymmetric advantage over adversaries in a maritime environment. The Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group, comprised of amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8) and amphibious transport docks USS Anchorage (LPD 23) and USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26), is operating in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations with the embarked 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit to enhance interoperability with Allies and partners and serves as a ready-response force to defend peace and maintain stability in the Indo-Pacific region.
