    A U.S. Navy replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation is underway between two vessels on open ocean under clear skies. Personnel in blue hard hats and face masks are lined up on the deck of one ship, with some wearing red life vests and one individual in a yellow safety vest standing apart facing the supply vessel. A large gray auxiliary/supply ship is visible alongside to port, with transfer lines rigged between the two vessels.

    PHILIPPINE SEA (June 13, 2020) Sailors, assigned to the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Mustin (DDG 89), prepare for a replenishment-at-sea with the dry cargo and ammunition ship USNS Alan Sheppard (T-AKE 3). Mustin is underway conducting operations in support of security and stability in the Indo-Pacific while assigned to Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 15, the Navy’s largest forward-deployed DESRON and the U.S. 7th Fleet’s principal surface force.

    A U.S. Navy replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation is underway between two vessels on open ocean under clear skies. Personnel in blue hard hats and face masks are lined up on the deck of one ship, with some wearing red life vests and one individual in a yellow safety vest standing apart facing the supply vessel. A large gray auxiliary/supply ship is visible alongside to port, with transfer lines rigged between the two vessels.
    A naval sailor wearing a red hard hat is firing a line-throwing rifle toward a large gray replenishment ship during an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea. The operation involves two vessels sailing in close proximity to establish a transfer line between them. This is a standard U.S. Navy logistics procedure used to transfer fuel, supplies, or ammunition between ships while underway.
    Naval personnel are engaged in a line-handling operation on the deck of a warship, pulling on a rope or mooring line in a coordinated chain formation. Two crew members are wearing orange life vests and navy blue coveralls, while a third person in a blue vest assists from behind. A large gray naval vessel, likely a replenishment or auxiliary ship, is visible in the background.
    A U.S. Navy sailor is shown in what appears to be a shipboard interior, speaking into a handheld communication device (sound-powered phone or intercom handset). The sailor is wearing a blue Navy uniform, a cover (cap) with the number '89' visible, a surgical face mask, and over-ear headphones/headset. The setting suggests an operational naval vessel environment.
    Two naval vessels are operating in open ocean, photographed from the deck of one warship looking toward a larger auxiliary/replenishment ship in the distance. The foreground vessel appears to be a U.S. Navy destroyer or cruiser based on visible deck equipment and gray hull coloring. The scene likely depicts a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) approach or formation sailing.
    A naval sailor wearing a face mask and dark uniform stands on the deck of a warship, handling what appears to be a line-throwing device or similar equipment with an orange/red line attached. In the background, a large auxiliary or replenishment vessel is visible on the open ocean, suggesting a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) or underway replenishment (UNREP) operation is being prepared or conducted. The scene takes place under partly cloudy skies on moderately choppy seas.
