171006-N-LR795-084 SAN DIEGO (October 6, 2017) - Cmdr. Scott Larson gives his final remarks as commanding officer, USS Coronado (LCS 4) Gold Crew, as he prepares to relinquish command to Cmdr. Karl F. McCarthy during a change of command ceremony held aboard the littoral combat ship USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS 10). LCS vessels are high-speed, agile, shallow draft, mission-focused surface combatants designed for operations in the littoral environment, yet fully capable of open ocean operations.
