SOUTH CHINA SEA (Oct. 14, 2016) A MH-60S Helicopter, assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 25, attached to the amphibious assault ship USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6), prepares to land on the flight deck of the guided-missile destroyer USS Decatur (DDG 73). Bonhomme Richard is the flagship for the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group (BHR ESG) and is participating in interoperability drills between the Pacific Surface Action Group (PAC SAG) and BHR ESG. The drills are meant to enhance readiness of cruiser-destroyer ships to rapidly integrate with an amphibious task force to provide increased capability for amphibious operations in support of crisis response or disaster relief.
