    A large white vessel, appearing to be a decommissioned or stationary naval/research ship, is moored along a marshy shoreline at dusk or dawn. The ship displays lights that reflect on the calm water surface, creating elongated golden streaks. Vegetation has grown around the hull, suggesting the vessel has been stationary for an extended period.

    The Naval Research Laboratory's ex-USS Shadwell is a decommissioned U.S. Navy Landing Ship Dock that serves as the Navy's full-scale damage control research, development, test and evaluation platform. Moored in Mobile Bay, Ala., the ship is regularly set ablaze in controlled demonstrations to test firefighting technologies, tactics and procedures and damage control practices to improve the safety of operational Navy and civilian shipboard firefighting measures.
