Summary[edit]

Description A starboard side view showing the US Navy (USN) Cyclone Class, Coastal Defense Ship, USS TYPHOON (PC 5) (middle ground) as it maneuvers away from the pier at Little Creek Amphibious Base, Virginia (VA) for an 18 month deployment with the USS SIROCCO (PC 6). These ships will be forward deployed for 18 months while crews are swapped out every six months. This 'crew swap' initiative increases the Navy's forward presence by providing an extra 90 days of on-station time per vessel when the ships stay deployed for 18 months. Location: LITTLE CREEK, VIRGINIA (VA) UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (USA)
