SAN DIEGO (May 4, 2021) A civilian mariner assigned to Military Sealift Command hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) stands a bridge wing lookout watch as the ship transits into Naval Air Station North Island (NASNI) May 4. Mercy is underway off the coast of Southern California completing Dynamic Interface Testing, where the ship’s aviation facilities will be evaluated for compatibility with the V-22 Osprey and MH-60 Seahawk, and establish launch and recovery windows in adverse weather conditions. Mercy recently returned to its homeport in San Diego from a regular overhaul in Portland, Ore., where improvements were made to its flight deck to support multiple aircraft platforms. Mercy must be in a five-day-activation status in order to support missions over the horizon, and be ready, reliable and resilient to support mission commanders.
