    A military helicopter, marked with the number '613', hovers over open ocean while a person is suspended below it on a hoist line above the water surface. The rotor wash from the helicopter has created a distinctive circular ripple pattern on the water below. This appears to be a search and rescue (SAR) or combat rescue training operation.

    A person is being hoisted by a cable from open ocean water up toward a helicopter, visible from an aerial perspective looking down. The operation appears to be a search-and-rescue or recovery hoist exercise over deep blue open water. A gloved hand at the top of the frame is managing the hoist cable from inside the helicopter.
    A military service member in full tactical gear is seated inside what appears to be a military aircraft or helicopter. The individual is wearing a tan/coyote brown FAST-style ballistic helmet with rail attachments, tactical sunglasses, and a MultiCam/OCP pattern combat uniform. The dramatic low-key lighting highlights the subject's profile against a dark interior background.
    Two military personnel wearing tactical helmets with hearing protection are positioned at the open door of a military helicopter over open ocean. One individual in camouflage uniform is handling a cylindrical canister or sonobuoy, appearing to prepare it for deployment. The image is taken from inside the aircraft looking outward toward a blue ocean horizon under partly cloudy skies.
    A military helicopter, numbered 613, hovers at low altitude over open ocean water. The rotor wash is visibly disturbing the sea surface below, creating a circular pattern of white spray and choppy waves. At least one crew member appears to be visible in the open door, suggesting a rescue or training operation.
    An aerial or elevated view of open ocean showing two people in the water, separated by a significant distance. One person on the left appears stationary and may be wearing a life vest or holding a flotation device, while the person on the right appears to be actively swimming with visible water disturbance. The image appears to document a water rescue or survival situation in deep blue open sea.
