The lifeboat from the Maersk Alabama is hoisted aboard the USS Boxer (LHD 4) to be processed for evidence in the Indian Ocean on April 13, 2009. Capt. Richard Phillips was held captive in the lifeboat by suspected Somali pirates for five days following a failed hijacking attempt off the Somali coast. The Boxer is deployed as part of Boxer Amphibious Readiness Group along with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit supporting Maritime Security Operations in the Navy’s 5th fleet area of operations.
