    A naval sailor wearing a red hard hat and red vest is firing a line-throwing gun toward a large gray replenishment vessel during an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea. The line-throwing rifle is used to establish an initial connection between two ships so that fuel lines, cargo, or personnel transfer rigs can be rigged between them. Two large gray military auxiliary or replenishment ships are visible in the background with transfer rigging equipment.
