Maj. Gen. Steven Busby, commanding general of 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, looks over the crowd during the christening ceremony for the USNS Montford Point at the General Dynamics NASSCO shipyard in San Diego, March 2. The newest addition to the Navy’s fleet will allow aircraft, like the ones Busby oversees in 3rd MAW, extended mobility to locations throughout the world by sea, ensuring the Navy and Marine Corps team’s the ability to remain both a forward-deployed hedge force against uncertainty and the partner of choice for many of America’s allies around the world.
