Summary edit

Description
English: Shipwrecked survivors are escorted across the flight deck of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) after being rescued at sea by two helicopters, assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 22, the "Sea Knights", from the fast combat support ship USNS Arctic (T-AOE 8) The seven mariners, four Pakistani and three Indian, were recovered after their dhow sank in rough seas. The survivors were adrift for two days before being discovered by the British-flagged vessel MV British Courage. Truman and Arctic are currently deployed to the Arabian Gulf as part of the on-going rotation to support Maritime Security Operations in the region. Coalition forces conduct MSO under international conventions to ensure security and safety in international waters so that all commercial shipping and fishing can operate freely while transiting the region.
