    PACIFIC OCEAN - Ens. Aldon Pagio, Navy Reserve Strategic Sealift Officer serving as 3rd Mate aboard the Military Sealift Command fleet tug USNS SIOUX (T-ATF 171), fixes the vessel's position through sextant observations of the moon, planets, and stars. Celestial navigation, which requires no electronics, is a centuries-old skill employed by mariners traversing the world's oceans. Ens. Pagio is a licensed civilian mariner who was activated for COVID-19 response to ensure Military Sealift Command can continue to provide seamless mission support to fleet operations worldwide.
