USS CARR, At Sea (Aug. 16, 2012) - The guided missile frigate USS Carr (FFG 52), not shown, receives mission-essential parts from a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol P-3 Orion patrol aircraft while supporting Operation Martillo Aug. 15, 2012, in the Caribbean Sea. During the exchange, Carr's embarked SH-60B Seahawk helicopter identified a suspect vessel over the horizon. A U.S. Coast Guard law enforcement detachment boarded the vessel and seized 1,250 pounds of cocaine with an estimated street value of about $17 million. Operation Martillo is a joint, interagency and multinational collaborative effort to deny transnational criminal organizations air and maritime access to the littoral regions of the Central American isthmus.
