Norfolk, Va. (Apr. 18, 2006) Boatswain's Mate 1st Class Roger Rodriguez hugs his daughter goodbye as the amphibious transport dock USS Trenton (LPD 14) prepares to depart Naval Station Norfolk, as a part of the Global War on Terrorism Surface Strike Group (GWOT SSG) 06-2. Trentons "surge" deployment along with guided-missile destroyer USS James E. Williams (DDG 95) and guided-missile cruiser USS Hue City (CG 66) will provide presence and strike power to support joint and allied forces afloat and ashore. Under the Fleet Response Plan (FRP), a simple realignment of schedules makes this deployment possible. U.S. Navy Photo by Lithographer Seaman Cory Rose File# 060418-N-0924R-128
