SINGAPORE (March 15, 2024) – Boatswains Mate Seaman Apprentice Markos Womack, from Jackson, Tennessee, trades patches and challenge coins with Singapore Navy Lt. Jedidiah Lim on the quarterdeck of Independence-variant littoral combat ship USS Mobile (LCS 26) while in port Singapore, March 15. Trading challenge coins, patches and uniform items is a long-standing military tradition that symbolizes mutual respect and friendship among service members of different nations.
