<p>CARIBBEAN SEA (Sept. 10, 2017) Sailors assigned to the amphibious assault ship USS Kearsarge (LHD 3) observe as pallets of cargo are transferred from the dry cargo and ammunition ship USNS William McLean (T-AKE 12) during a replenishment-at-sea. Kearsarge and the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (26th MEU) are assisting with relief efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma. The Department of Defense is supporting the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the lead federal agency, in helping those affected by Hurricane Irma to minimize suffering and is one component of the overall whole-of-government response effort.
