I agree 100%..as a photo journalist the photographer they should know what they are photographing.. But no sailor knows everything about the navy.
Thats what wifey said when she backed my Toyota Landcruiser into a tree? maybe she was right, continental shift? AFB
Equation
Lieutenant General
LOL...did the tree hit the Toyota Landcruiser instead of her forgetting to shift to different gear?
It has nothing to do with that.
These are relatively small vessels with wooden hulls and the cost and vulnerability to the vessel in that long of a cruize as well as the wear and tear on the hull and its life, probably simply make it more long term economical and safe for the vessel to be hauled over there.
You rarely if ever see these vessels on long, across major ocean assignments. Traveling from Japan down near the Philippines is one thing, traveling from the Persian Gulf clear across the Arabian Sea and Indian Oceean and into the Pacific is another.
That's my read.
Finally some fresh photos of the salvage operations ongoing with the USS Guardian (MCM 5).
That's normal guys. When those ships were transferred from former USN base at Ingleside Texas to the Persian Gulf heavy lift ships were used. And other times also.
