    A scuba diver is photographed underwater, bent forward and appearing to interact with something on or near the sandy seafloor. The diver is equipped with full scuba gear including a tank, BCD, and regulator, with exhaust bubbles rising toward the surface. A large marine animal, possibly a nurse shark or ray, is visible in the background to the right.

    Construction Mechanic (SCW/DV) Adam Cooper, from Underwater Construction Team 2, removes drill steel from the seafloor after completing rapid penetration tests off the coast of Naval Support Facility Diego Garcia. His tests will provide geotechnical information necessary to plan the installation of future fleet mooring systems. NSF Diego Garcia is the first of seven stops spanning six countries across the Pacific for members of Underwater Construction Team 2's Construction Dive Detachment Charlie. They'll be conducting inspection, maintenance and repair of various underwater and waterfront facilities along with participation in four Pacific Fleet exercises during their six-month PACOM deployment.
