Cmdr. Troy Nichols salutes Cmdr. Jerry Hendrix via video teleconference while assuming command of TACRON 11 during a change of command ceremony aboard amphibious assault ship USS Tarawa (LHA-1). Tarawa is deployed to the U.S. 5th Fleet area of responsibility in support of Maritime Security Operations. Maritime Security Operations help set the conditions for security in the maritime environment. From security arises stability that results in global economic prosperity. MSO complements the counter-terrorism and security efforts of regional nations and seek to disrupt violent extremists' use of the maritime environment as a venue for attack or to transport personnel, weapons or other material.
