    The image shows three vessels on open ocean waters under a partly cloudy sky. The central and largest vessel is clearly marked 'U.S. COAST GUARD' on its hull, flanked by two smaller vessels on either side. The scene appears to depict a maritime operation or patrol formation in open sea conditions.

    The Coast Guard Cutter Aspen (WLB-208), a 225-foot sea-going buoy tender, is shown while conducting an international exercise with Mexican and Canadian navies in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, Oct. 21, 2017. The Aspen's participation helped to strengthen international partnerships between U.S., Canadian and Mexican naval forces while degrading and disrupting transnational criminal organization networks.

    A small rigid inflatable boat (RIB) is being hoisted or recovered onto the deck of a larger vessel, likely a U.S. Coast Guard cutter, over open ocean. Multiple personnel in orange life vests and helmets are visible both aboard the small boat and on the ship's deck managing the operation. The scene depicts a standard small boat recovery evolution using davit or crane rigging.
    Two rigid-hull inflatable boats (RHIBs) are underway at speed on open ocean water, photographed from an elevated vantage point such as a ship or helicopter. Both vessels appear to be military or coast guard type craft, carrying personnel wearing orange life vests. The boats are traveling in a roughly parallel formation, each leaving a distinct white wake.
