    USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7)

    ATLANTIC OCEAN (April 5, 2025) Aviation Electronics Technician 3rd Class Blake Pitchford, from Charlotte, North Carolina, assigned to the Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7), shows Lance Cpl. Messiah Gray, from Fort Washington, Maine, assigned to the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit, how to calibrate megohmeter test equipment in the calibration lab onboard Iwo Jima while underway. Iwo Jima is with the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group conducting Amphibious Squadron Marine Expeditionary Unit Integration Training (PMINT), designed to test the capabilities of the IWO ARG and 22nd MEU as a fully-integrated expeditionary force. PMINT gives the Navy-Marine Corps team a unique opportunity to strengthen partnerships and interoperability before deployment. The IWO ARG consists of its flagship, Iwo Jima, and the San Antonio-class Landing Dock ships USS San Antonio (LPD 17) and USS Fort Lauderdale (LPD 28). The IWO ARG—in concert with its integrated 22nd MEU team—deters aggression, projects power through presence abroad, and executes contingency missions in support of U.S. strategic interests around the world.
