    Petty Officer 2nd Class Matthew Rishovd, left, works with Petty Officer 2nd Class Kody Egelhoff repair a Pirata bouy for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Repairing bouys is part of the Africa Partnership Station's mission to help the NOAA collect weather data that may help predict hurricanes and other inclement weather. APS is a part of a multi-national effort to bring the latest training and techniques to maritime professionals in nine West African countries and to address the common threats of illegal fishing, smuggling and human trafficking. In addition to maritime training, APS will perform more than 20 humanitarian projects in the region.
