GULF OF ADEN (Sept. 15 2018) – Army Maj. Gen. James Craig, commander, Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa, arrives aboard Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2) for a ship visit during a regularly scheduled deployment of Essex Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) and 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU). The Essex ARG and 13th MEU is the first U.S. Navy/Marine Corps team to deploy to U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations with the transformational warfighting capabilities of the F-35B Lightning II, making it a more lethal, flexible and persistent force, leading to a more stable region for our partner nations.
