The Whidbey Island-class dock landing ship USS Fort McHenry (LSD 43) passes under the Northern Lights while participating in Exercise Cold Response 2016 (CDR 16). CDR 16 involves maritime, land and air operation training and focuses on naval and amphibious operations transitions to ground maneuver.
