Summary

Description
English: Pictured is a Mexifloat unloading on the beach at Grand Tuck with Heavy Plant for use in the rebuild after the hurricane.

RFA Mounts Bay has begun its support to Grand Turk island in the Turks and Caicos islands, in support of the Commando force from 3 Cdo Brigade personnel from 40 Commando Royal Marines and 59 Commando Royal Engineers.

The ship unleashed its hidden weapon in the shape of their floating raft which is capable of delivering heavy machine across a beach. The Mexifloat delivered much required building stores, JCB diggers and transport vehicles.

Within hours of unloading the vehicles, the Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief troop from RFA Mounts Bay were setting about clearing debris and damaged roofing from the local primary school.
