HONG KONG (NNS) -- The Ticonderoga-class guided-missile
cruiser USS Antietam (CG 54) arrived in Hong Kong for a port visit, April 3.
Sailors will be given the opportunity to experience the rich
culture of Hong Kong with various tours of local historic locations and
regional attractions provided by the ship's morale, welfare and recreation
(MWR) association.
"MWR Hong Kong offers shopping tours, city tours, as
well as many hikes and outdoor activities," said Ensign Netan Pruthi,
Antietam's MWR officer. "Sailors who are looking for ways to enjoy Hong
Kong have many great options to choose from."
The ship and its crew recently participated in exercise
Multi-Sail 2015, which was aimed to increase its combat capability across
different warfare areas.
Antietam, forward deployed to Yokosuka, Japan, is on patrol
in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operation supporting security and stability in
the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
