U.S. Navy Sailors stand aboard a beached U.S. Air Force
Summary
U.S. Navy Sailors stand aboard a beached U.S. Air Force Missile Retriever Ship while at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla., Dec. 13, 2018. During the onslaught of Hurricane Michael over two months ago, the vessel broke free and was pushed ashore. Sailors from Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit (MDSU) 2, homeported at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Ft. Story, partnered with Tyndall personnel to return the vessel to the water. The Missile Retriever ship is responsible for the location and recovery of Subscale Aerial Targets in the Gulf of Mexico W151 Live-Fire Range. MR’s also conduct launch and recovery corridor clearance operations for both SSAT and Full-scale Aerial Target Missions.(U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Isaiah J. Soliz)
