Cmdr. Kevin Smith, outgoing commanding officer of the Independence-variant littoral combat ship USS Omaha (LCS 12), delivers remarks during a change of command ceremony held at Naval Base San Diego, July 29. Littoral combat ships are fast, optimally-manned, mission-tailored surface combatants that operate in near-shore and open-ocean environments, winning against 21st-century threats. LCS integrate with joint, combined, manned and unmanned teams to support forward-presence, maritime security, sea control, and deterrence missions around the globe.
