Boatswain's Mate (Handling) 3rd Class Andre Nation directs a chock and
chain crew away from an MH-65D Dolphin helicopter assigned to Coast
Guard Squadron (CG) 65 on the flight deck of the amphibious assault ship
USS Wasp (LHD 1). For prudent planning, the Navy has begun to
preposition Wasp, USS San Antonio (LPD 17), and USS Carter Hill (LSD 50)
for primary assistance in the affected Northeast region if required by
FEMA following the devastation brought on by Hurricane Sandy. San
Antonio and Carter Hall got underway Oct. 31 from Norfolk, Va., and
began transiting north to the affected areas on Nov. 1. U.S. Navy photo
