Summary edit

Description
English: Persian Gulf (Mar. 10, 2005) - Search and rescue swimmer Yeoman Seaman Brandon Javellana, assigned to the amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2), uses a knife to free one of three large sea turtles trapped in a fisherman's net. Essex spotted the turtles while transiting the Persian Gulf. The ship used its Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat (RHIB) to get close to the turtles and cut them free from the netting. Essex is the Navy's only forward deployed amphibious assault ship, homeported in Sasebo, Japan, and the flagship for Amphibious Squadron Eleven Amphibious Ready Group.
