    A naval officer wearing a dark blue uniform and a cap marked 'CO' (Commanding Officer) is seated on a ship's bridge wing, observing a distant vessel through Steiner binoculars. The distant ship on the horizon appears to be a large naval vessel, possibly an aircraft carrier or amphibious assault ship. The scene takes place on calm open ocean under overcast skies.

    170610-N-ZW825-222 SOUTH CHINA SEA (June 10, 2017) Cmdr. Claudine Caluori, commanding officer of Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Sterett (DDG 104) observes Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) ship JS Izumo (DDH 183) off Sterett’s starboard side. Sterett, Izumo, JMSDF ship JS Sazanami (DD 113), Royal Canadian Navy ship HMCS Winnipeg (338) and Royal Australian Navy ship HMAS Ballarat (FFH 155) conducted a series of maritime operations together in the South China Sea. Sterett is part of the Sterett-Dewey Surface Action Group and is the third deploying group operating under the command and control construct called 3rd Fleet Forward. U.S. 3rd Fleet operating forward offers additional options to the Pacific Fleet commander by leveraging the capabilities of 3rd and 7th Fleets.
