Lonestar's Deployment thread(not for 56k) Get a bigger avatar today!

First, some navy pics.








When we were in 5th fleet the JMSDF had 3 vessesls in the NAG and GOO, the Choukai, Mashu, and Oonami. These three pics are of the Choukai, an AEGIS equipped DDG that lit off it's SPY-1 at the Iranian P-3 that tried to fly over and be an ******* whenever we RAS'ed (refueld-at-sea). While I have no pics of the P-3 (part of my duties are taking pictures of foriegn vessels/planes using the official Secret camera, so I was always doing that) this P-3 would fly over and irradiate it's missiles at us becuase they knew we couldn't light off our system with the oiler so close.

But the JMSDF Oiler Mashu was being escorted by a DDG and DD, and the Choukai always scared them off when we RAS'ed with them.



Mashu


Oonami



While on deployment we interacted with the Pakistani Navy quite a bit, Most often with the Shahjahan and Tippu Sultun since my pics of the TS suck, here's one of the Shahjahan.


Shahjahan



Rushmore, Which was one of 3 Amphibs riding with us.


Thach was the FFG in our ESG.


Tippecanoe was a AOR that hung around in the Indian Ocean.

Some of you may recall that we boarded a Dhow, and found 3 tons of Hashish. Now what, you may ask, did we do with the Dhow?

DD stands for Deck Destroyer, actually.

DE is a Destroyer Escort. Now known as an FF, which stands for Fast Frigate.
