16 The Freedom-variant littoral combat ship USS Sioux City (LCS 11) and Jamaica Defence Force Coast Guard patrol vessel HMJS George William Gordon conducted a bi-lateral maritime exercise in the Caribbean Sea, May 8.
During the exercise, Sioux City deployed her 11-meter rigid-hulled inflatable boat (RHIB) and MH-60S Sea hawk attached to the “Sea Knights” of Helicopter Combat Squadron (HSC) 22 to coordinate with George William Gordon. Forces practiced a series of tactical shipboard movements, formations, and vectoring, as well as tested command and control capabilities.
The exercise helped to improve interoperability and demonstrate the strategic partnership with the Jamaican Defence Force that helps enhance capabilities against shared threats.
Hopes high for postseason play
