Summary edit

Description

MINA SALMAN PIER, Bahrain (Oct. 29, 2012) Bahraini fishermen make their way into the well deck of the Afloat Forward Staging Base (Interim) USS Ponce (AFSB(I) 15) after being rescued from their skiffs during heavy weather. The seven fishermen were assisted aboard by Ponce's crew, treated by the ship's medical staff and returned to shore in Bahrain. Ponce, formerly designated as an amphibious transport dock (LPD) ship, was converted and reclassified to fulfill a longstanding U.S. Central Command request for an AFSB to be located in its area of responsibility. The U.S. Navy is constantly deployed to preserve peace, protect commerce, and deter aggression through forward presence. Join the conversation on social media using #warfighting.
