 Welcome to our hands-up date. Here's what's happening around your Navy. USS Mount Whitney, along with seven other ships, arrived in Tallinn, Estonia to participate in balltops 2016. Balltops is an annual multinational exercise designed to enhance flexibility and partnerships while ensuring peace and stability in the Baltic region. The kill of future ship USS Delbert D.
