USS Arlington

 

USS ARLINGTON is a US Navy ship used for amphibian operations.

With a length of more than200 meters, the warship can board up to four helicopters and can accommodate 700 passengers.

After a mission of six months in the Persian gulf, USS ARLINGTON is anchored in Marseille for one week.

During this diplomatic and refueling stopover, Azur Evasion has been able to transport all soldiers to the city.

A lot of coaches were required during this period to allow Americans to discover the city, the so called Old Port, its restaurants and other typical places of Marseille.

In evening or during the day, this excursions rang as holidays for Marines on their way back home.

A question, a request?
