Sailors attached to Cargo Afloat Rig Team (CART) 1 and crew members of Military Sealift Command fleet replenishment oiler USNS Henry J. Kaiser (T-AO 187) prepare to transfer biofuel to the guided-missile cruiser USS Princeton (CG 59) during the Great Green Fleet demonstration as part of Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2012. Princeton is currently underway participating in RIMPAC. This is a 50/50 blend of advanced biofuel and traditional petroleum-based fuel. Twenty-two nations, more than 40 ships and submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC exercise from June 29 to Aug. 3, in and around the Hawaiian Islands. The world’s largest international maritime exercise, RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity that helps participants foster and sustain the cooperative relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world’s oceans. RIMPAC 2012 is the 23rd exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Eva-Marie Ramsaran/RELEASED)
