    USS Mount Whitney (LCC 20)

    The German Navy Sachsen-class frigate FGS Hamburg (F 220) sails in the Baltic Sea, June 22, 2026. Mount Whitney is on a scheduled deployment in the U.S. 6th Fleet area of operations to support the warfighting effectiveness, lethality and readiness of U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Africa, and defend U.S., Allied and partner interests in the region.
