PACIFIC OCEAN (Feb. 13, 2017) Sailors lower a rigid hull inflatable boat from Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Wayne E. Meyer (DDG 108) in preparation for a swim call in the waters above the Marianas Trench. Wayne E. Meyer is on a regularly scheduled Western Pacific deployment with the Carl Vinson Carrier Strike Group as part of the U.S. Pacific Fleet-led initiative to extend the command and control functions of U.S. 3rd Fleet into the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. U.S. Navy aircraft carrier strike groups have patrolled the Indo-Asia-Pacific regularly and routinely for more than 70 years. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Kelsey L.
