Jack Buono, right, 13th Superintendent of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, receives a brief on operations currently underway as part of International Maritime Exercise 19 (IMX 19), as Capt. Daniel Gavigan, Lead Planner for IMX 19, provides input. The exercise is a multinational engagement involving partners and allies from around the world designed to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and experiences across the full spectrum of defensive maritime operations. IMX 19 serves to demonstrate the global resolve in maintaining regional security and stability, freedom of navigation and the free flow of commerce from the Suez Canal south to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait through the Strait of Hormuz to the northern Arabian Gulf.
