HSV Swift Visit to Monrovia


HSV Swift Visit
Originally uploaded by keith.brinkman
The US Navy is currently here in Monrovia, Liberia with three ships outside the harbour and one HSV Swift tied up to the pier. We were invited to take a tour of HSV (High Speed Vessel - made of aluminum and able to travel up to 50 mph) last night. In the photo, I am sitting in the capitan's chair with my finger on the small silver 'helm'. The US Navy is on a good will tour, in cooperation with some non-governmental organizations, and hosting various receptions on board. In return, we hosted them for a tour and coffee on board the Africa Mercy.
