HMCS Moncton’s crew are preparing for a deployment to Operation Caribbe, the Canadian mission supporting American allies in their efforts to combat illicit trafficking in international waters. The ship is set to depart later this month, and recently welcomed staff from Sea Training (Atlantic) on board for Multi-ship Readiness Training to evaluate Moncton’s readiness level before proceeding to sea. The Royal Canadian Navy’s most recent contribution to Operation Caribbe on the east coast saw HMCS Summerside deploy to the Caribbean Sea and Eastern Pacific Ocean from Oct. 26 to Dec. 8, 2020.
