    A U.S. Sailor, assigned to the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group, signals to the pilots of an MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft to take off from the flight deck of Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7) while underway in the Caribbean Sea, Feb. 18, 2026. U.S. military forces are deployed to the Caribbean in support of the U.S. Southern Command mission, Department of War-directed operations, and the president’s priorities to disrupt illicit drug trafficking and protect the homeland.
