Army Capt. Shane Lauritzen, in typical Guantanamo Bay "farewell" tradition, jumped off the pier at Officer's Landing as Navy Capt. Peter Husta, outgoing chief of staff, departed the windward side of U.S. Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, April 23. Navy Capt. Paul O'Connor replaces Husta as the new chief of staff for Joint Task Force Guantanamo. JTF Guantanamo conducts safe, humane, legal and transparent care and custody of detainees, including those convicted by military commission and those ordered released. The JTF conducts intelligence collection, analysis and dissemination for the protection of detainees and personnel working in JTF Guantanamo facilities and in support of the Global War on Terror. JTF Guantanamo provides support to the Office of Military Commissions, to law enforcement and to war crimes investigations. The JTF conducts planning for and, on order, responds to Caribbean mass migration operations.
