A quick stop in Stavanger allowed the SC to climb Pulpit Rock before getting back to business ivo Bergen for the start of Ex TAMBER SHIELD. Great to host @Forsvaret_no and exchange navigational experiences. Not many can call 20kts slow! #TheOrigionalAndBest #TheArrowNeverMisses.

We are putting words into action.

Yesterday DASHER provided safety boat support for a JPR (Joint Personnel Recovery) serial as part of #BALTOPS25
