Its charter member vessels were HMS Artemis (flagship), HMS Wolf, and HMS Roland. In June of 2015, HMS Cerberus (Modesto, CA) and HMS Merlin (Santa Ana, CA) were added to the task group by Naval Directive 15JU-01U. Shortly after the including of those two vessels, Sir Thomas stepped down as Commanding Officer and then-CAPTSG James Jones relieved him.
