    A person in a red and black immersion/survival suit is submerged in an ice hole in Arctic or polar waters, smiling at the camera during what appears to be a cold-water survival training exercise. They are wearing a helmet mounted with a GoPro action camera. In the background, a large red and white U.S. Coast Guard icebreaker vessel bearing the number '20' is visible.

    ARCTIC OCEAN – U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer 3rd Class Shannon Eubanks poses for a photograph Wednesday, Oct. 3, 2018, about 715 miles north of Barrow, Alaska, in the Arctic. Eubanks is a crew member aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Healy (WAGB-20) and serves on the ice rescue team to protect crew members and scientists conducting work in the Arctic. The Healy is underway in the Arctic with about 100 crew members and 30 scientists to deploy sensors and semi-autonomous submarines to study stratified ocean dynamics and how environmental factors affect the water below the ice surface for the Office of Naval Research. The Healy, which is homeported in Seattle, is one of two ice breakers in U.S. service and is the only military ship dedicated to conducting research in the Arctic.
