SAN DIEGO (Nov. 11, 2022) – Sailors assigned to deck department raise the jackstaff aboard amphibious transport dock USS Anchorage (LPD 23) to use as a navigational point of reference during an anchor evolution, Nov. 11, 2022. Anchor evolutions test the functionality of the ship’s anchor to ensure it will keep the ship in place. The Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group, comprised of amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8) and amphibious transport docks Anchorage and USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26), is underway conducting routine operations in U.S. 3rd Fleet with the embarked 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Tom Tonthat)
