U.S. Navy Lt. Cmdr. Nick Alander, chaplain assigned to the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) (MEU(SOC)), baptizes Lance Cpl. Thomas Chevalier, a Light Armored Vehicle maintainer with the 26th MEU(SOC)’s Battalion Landing Team 1/6, aboard the Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Bataan (LHD 5), Mediterranean Sea, July 29, 2023. Chaplains offer everything from faith to personal advice, to much-needed solace – all while living up to the guiding principles of the Chaplain Mission: Providing religious ministry and support to those of your own faith. The 26th MEU(SOC), embarked with the Bataan Amphibious Ready Group, is on a scheduled deployment as the Tri-Geographic Combatant Command Immediate Response Force within the Fifth and Sixth Fleet’s area of responsibility.
