    A rigid inflatable boat (RIB) carrying four personnel is underway on open ocean waters, flying an American flag. In the background, a U.S. Navy warship bearing hull number 56 is visible on the horizon. The scene appears to depict a naval small boat operation, likely a RHIB (Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat) deployed from the larger vessel.

    Sailors aboard the guided-missile frigate USS Simpson's (FFG 56) rigid hull inflatable boat drive alongside a fishing vessel in Senegal's Exclusive Economic Zone after dropping off a joint-boarding team of U.S. Coast Guard and Senegalese sailors to inspect a ship. Simpson recently supported African Maritime Law Enforcement Partnership (AMLEP) operations, a branch of the Africa Partnership Station (APS), in an effort to build maritime safety and security on and off shore.

    A uniformed soldier in camouflage gear and a black helmet stands guard on a vessel while observing a fishing boat alongside. The fishing boat is crowded with workers in colorful clothing, and its deck is covered with a large catch of fish along with wicker baskets. The scene appears to depict a maritime law enforcement or fisheries inspection operation at sea.
    Two armed personnel in tactical gear are positioned on what appears to be a vessel deck. The foreground figure wears a black beret-style helmet cover, camouflage uniform, body armor, and a US flag patch with yellow border. The background figure wears a ballistic helmet, sunglasses, tactical vest with a US flag patch, and appears to be holding a radio or communication device.

    A close-up profile shot of a military or law enforcement operator wearing tactical gear including a black helmet, communication headset with boom microphone, and mirrored tactical goggles. The goggles reflect what appears to be a maritime vessel deck scene with personnel and ocean water visible in the reflection. The image is a high-quality, sharp photograph emphasizing the operator's equipment and the reflected scene.
