    Military personnel are conducting a rope climbing or rappelling training exercise aboard a naval vessel at sea. A single service member is suspended on a rope below the ship's deck while a large group of fellow personnel lean over the railing observing or managing the rope from above. The exercise appears to be a vertical assault or ship-boarding drill conducted under sunny, open-ocean conditions.

    SOUTH CHINA SEA (Nov. 26, 2019) Sgt. Jeremy Hill, from Mishawaka, Indiana, demonstrates proper procedures as 1st Lt. Joseph Ahearne, from Boston, gives a safety training before Sailors and Marines from 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, currently assigned to 3rd Marine Division repel down into the well-deck aboard the Whidbey Island-class dock landing ship USS Germantown (LSD 42). Germantown, part of Commander, Amphibious Squadron 11, is deployed to the Indo-Pacific region to enhance interoperability with partners and serve as a ready-response force for any type of contingency.
