The U.S. Coast Guard Legend-class cutter USCGC Midgett (WMSL 757) hosted a multi-ship interdiction and boarding exercise with the Italian Navy Thaon di Revel-class offshore patrol vessel ITS Montecuccoli (P 432), who fast-roped a boarding team of seven onto Midgett simulating an at-sea boarding of a suspected arms smuggling vessel during Exercise Rim of the Pacific near Hawaii, July 15, 2024. Twenty-nine nations, 40 surface ships, three submarines, 14 national land forces, more than 150 aircraft, and 25,000 personnel are participating in and around the Hawaiian Islands, June 27 to Aug. 1. The world’s largest international maritime exercise; RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity while fostering and sustaining cooperative relationships among participants critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world’s oceans. RIMPAC 2024 is the 29th exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by David Lau)
