Admiral Gomez joined the unit with the organic Greek AB212 ship helicopter which transferred the Task Force commander from the ESPS Galicia flag ship, where the "headquarters" of the 465 Task Force resides.
The admiral was accompanied on board by three other officers belonging to his staff including the military chaplain of the Spanish unit.
During the on-board visit, the Spanish admiral had the opportunity to learn more about the commander and his crew, the technical and operational characteristics of the Italian unit and in particular the activity carried out for the Atalanta operation since February 17, the day of entry in the Task Force.
