    Two military personnel in tactical gear and helmets are conducting a water rescue operation from the side of a naval vessel. They are using a reach pole to retrieve a person floating in open blue water who is wearing an orange life vest. This appears to be a training exercise or man-overboard rescue drill.
    A military helicopter, appearing to be a Sikorsky SH-60 Seahawk variant, hovers low over the stern of a naval vessel at sea. The rotor wash is visibly disturbing the water surface below the aircraft. The scene depicts a maritime military operation, likely a deck approach or personnel transfer exercise.
    Two military personnel in U.S. Navy digital camouflage uniforms and tactical gear stand on the deck of a naval vessel observing a helicopter in the distance. A person is secured on a rescue litter/stretcher on the deck, suggesting a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) or casualty evacuation (CASEVAC) drill or operation. A military helicopter is visible in the background over open ocean.

    A military helicopter, photographed from below against a clear blue sky, with at least one person visibly hanging or rappelling from its open side door. The aircraft appears to be a large U.S. military helicopter, likely an MH-60 or similar variant, showing signs of weathering and operational use. The image captures what appears to be a hoist or fast-rope insertion/extraction operation in progress.
    A military or coast guard patrol vessel is observed at high speed across open ocean waters, photographed from the deck of another vessel. The fast-moving craft is generating a large white wake, indicating significant speed. The foreground shows part of the observing vessel's deck and what appears to be a sensor or camera turret.
