Where did the attempts happen? We did some Op’s in the Indian Ocean around Somalia and of course they didn’t bother us but we did see a lot of creepy boats that looked like they were up to no good. We buzzed many numerous time with our helo.

One off the coast off Nigeria and the other one was in Malacca Straits. The latter is notorious for this stuff. We did always practice pirate watch in pirate infested areas with all fires hoses running shooting water to the sides and deck lights on. Worked as a deterrent.
