    MV-22B Osprey aircraft from Special-Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response prepare to leave Naval Air Station Sigonella, Italy, to escort approximately 150 personnel from the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, Libya, on the morning of July 26, 2014. The Department of State, in coordination with the U.S. Ambassador for Libya, requested Department of Defense support for a military-assisted departure of embassy personnel. SP-MAGTF Crisis Response is a self-deploying, self-sustaining task force with the capacity to provide a rapid-response capability to U.S. Africa Command.
