Culinary Specialist 3rd Class Juan Alamares cleans a mixing kettle in the galley aboard the San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock ship USS Green Bay. Green Bay is replacing the decommissioned Austin-class amphibious transport dock ship USS Denver (LPD 9), previously forward-deployed to Sasebo, and will enhance amphibious presence in the U.S. 7th Fleet as part of the U.S. Navy's long-range plan to send the most advanced and capable units to the Asia-Pacific region.
