150723-N-IH037-001 SOUTH CHINA SEA (July, 23, 2015) Lt. j.g. Hasenbank, center, mentors new ensigns as he stands his last officer of the deck watch aboard the littoral combat ship USS Fort Worth (LCS 3) during a Singapore Strait transit. Hasenbank was one of the first assigned ensigns to the LCS program and the first ensign to earn a Surface Warfare Officer pin on an LCS. Currently on a 16-month rotational deployment in support of the Indo-Asia-Pacific-Rebalance, Fort Worth is a fast and agile warship tailor-made to patrol the region's littorals and work hull-to-hull with partner navies, providing the U.S. 7th Fleet with the flexible capabilities it needs now and in the future (U.S. Navy photo by Lt.
