Heading Home

Hundreds of US sailors are coming home to Norfolk, Virginia.

USS Bainbridge (DDG 96) will tie up at Naval Station Norfolk after seven months in the 5th and 6th Fleet areas.

The crew conducted 27 counter-piracy operations in the Gulf of Aden, Gulf of Oman and Somali area.

In May, the ship’s “visit, board, search and seizure” team freed 15 people from a Pakistani dhow off the coast of Somalia.
