NAPLES, Italy — The transfer of two American patrol boats to Tunisia and a Navy command ship’s visit embody a centuries-old U.S. commitment to maritime partnership with the North African country, a top service official said this week. The commissioning of the boats during a ceremony Thursday in the capital city Tunis is the most recent U.S. equipment contribution to Tunisia, 6th Fleet said in a statement the same day. The event, featuring a port visit by 6th Fleet flagship USS Mount Whitney, was an opportunity “to engage with our Tunisian counterparts and reaffirm our commitment to working together,” Vice Adm. Jeffrey Anderson, commander of U.S. 6th Fleet, said in the statement.
