180714-N-RP442-0252 PACIFIC OCEAN (July 14, 2018) Aviation Boatswain’s Mate (Handling) 3rd Class Keith Lee, assigned to the Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2), uses a naval firefighting thermal imager (NIFTI) during a flight deck fire drill while on a scheduled deployment of the Essex Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) and the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (13th MEU). The Essex ARG/MEU team is a strong, flexible, responsive, and consistent force capable of maneuver warfare across all domains; it is equipped and scalable to respond to any crisis from humanitarian assistance and disaster relief to contingency operations.
