    USCGC Campbell ventured into Disko Bay with the HDMS Knud Rasmussen for joint helicopter training exercises on Sept. 6, 2020.
    Disko Bay is known for its heavy concentration of large icebergs calving off the Jacobshavn Glacier.
    The Jacobshavn Glacier is the primary contributor to icebergs in Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea.
    CGC Campbell safely navigated the heavy concentration of floating ice, icebergs the size of professional sports stadiums,
    and launched their Over the Horizon cutter boat for training. CGC Campbell also launched the MH-6567 Dolphin helicopter
    to conduct hoist, rescue basket and landings and take-offs from the Knud Rasmussen.

    Two vessels are positioned side by side on open polar waters, with icebergs and a distant coastline visible on the horizon. The larger vessel on the left is clearly marked as a U.S. Coast Guard cutter, while a second gray military or patrol vessel is positioned to its right. The overcast sky and icy background suggest an Arctic or Antarctic operational environment.
    A gray naval vessel marked 'P570' is underway at sea in overcast, hazy conditions. An orange search-and-rescue helicopter is hovering nearby, appearing to conduct a hoist or transfer operation with personnel visible on the ship's stern deck. The scene suggests a maritime rescue exercise or operational SAR (Search and Rescue) activity.
    A naval patrol vessel with hull number P570 is navigating through Arctic or sub-Arctic waters surrounded by icebergs and ice formations in the background. The ship appears to be a gray military vessel with a red helicopter visible on its deck. The scene is overcast with heavy fog or mist, creating a moody, low-visibility environment.
    A white vessel with a distinctive red diagonal stripe on its bow is positioned on open ocean, viewed from a distance at water level. The ship appears to be a Coast Guard cutter based on its hull markings and superstructure design. The scene is set under a partly cloudy blue sky with calm to moderately choppy seas.
    Two silhouetted figures are observed from inside what appears to be a ship's bridge or wheelhouse, looking out over open water. One person is using binoculars to observe a distant iceberg visible on the horizon. The image is taken in low-light, overcast conditions, creating strong silhouette contrast against the gray seascape.
    Two U.S. Coast Guard personnel are aboard a patrol vessel navigating near a large iceberg in open ocean waters. Both crew members are wearing orange immersion suits and black helmets, with an American flag flying from the vessel's mast. The boat is equipped with navigation electronics and a Furuno radar dome.
    A person wearing a black helmet, balaclava, goggles, and a red survival/immersion suit is aboard a small patrol vessel on open water. An American flag is flying from the vessel's mast, and an iceberg is visible in the background. The setting and equipment suggest a U.S. Coast Guard operation in cold, Arctic or sub-Arctic waters.
    A bright orange rigid inflatable boat (RIB) is navigating open ocean waters toward a large white iceberg in the background. The boat appears to be moving at speed, generating a visible wake, and carries what appears to be a small crew. The scene is set under a partly cloudy blue sky with calm to moderate sea conditions.
    An orange rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with the number '26301' is underway at speed on open polar waters, with multiple icebergs visible on the horizon in the background. The vessel carries three crew members dressed in red survival/immersion suits, consistent with cold-water operational protocols. The scene suggests a patrol or operational mission in Arctic or Antarctic waters.
    A bright orange Coast Guard helicopter hovers above the stern helipad of a naval or coast guard vessel at sea, conducting a hoist training or rescue operation. A rescue basket is being lowered via cable to personnel on the ship's deck. The operation takes place under overcast skies on open, choppy water.
    An orange U.S. Coast Guard helicopter (numbered 67) is landing or secured on a ship's flight deck at sea. Ground crew members in orange flight suits and dark uniforms with blue helmets are working around the aircraft, handling tie-down lines and conducting deck operations. The ship appears to be underway, with visible wake and rough water in the background.
    An orange and black search-and-rescue helicopter, consistent with a US Coast Guard MH-65 Dolphin, is hovering or flying at low altitude over open ocean. The image is taken from the deck of a vessel, as indicated by the ship's wake visible in the background. A distant vessel or buoy is faintly visible on the horizon.
    A U.S. Coast Guard MH-65 Dolphin helicopter (tail number 6567) is hovering over open ocean water in overcast conditions. A rescue swimmer is being lowered or deployed from the aircraft on a hoist cable, while a crew member in the open side door manages the operation. This appears to be either a live rescue operation or a training exercise over the sea.
