Summary
DescriptionRoyal Marines practise boarding skills from a Merlin helicopter on to HMS Medways flight deck.jpg |
English: A Merlin from 845 Commando Helicopter Force fast ropes personnel from RFA Argus to HMS Medway. The Atlantic Patrol Tasking has arrived in The British Virgin Islands to reassure them that they will be looked after in this year’s hurricane season. RFA Argus and HMS Medway met up to transfer stores and to also fly over the islands to let them know the Navy has arrived in the area.
RFA Argus is a Primary Casualty Receiving Ship of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary. It has a 100-bed medical complex on board. She acts as a floating medical facility, she is currently in Curacao. The Royal Navy plays an essential part of the UK's military response to support people affected by Hurricanes by providing humanitarian and disaster relief to the Caribbean Islands. When disasters occur, infrastructure and resources can be crippled, with shortages of food and water supplies and a lack of basic services like sanitation and electricity. Responding humanely to these life-threatening scenarios is central to the Royal Navy's ethos - we have the skills, know-how and equipment to make a real difference, however extreme the circumstances.A self-sustaining, flexible force for good - even in the most challenging conditions– The crew will work alongside local emergency services re-establishing law and order, restoring water and power, repairing buildings like hospitals and schools, reopening airstrips and roads. |
