    A U.S. Coast Guard cutter with hull number 901 is photographed at sea under partly cloudy skies. The large white vessel displays the distinctive Coast Guard diagonal stripe in red and blue on its bow. The ship appears to be stationary or moving slowly on calm, deep blue open ocean waters.
    A group of approximately seven to eight personnel pose on a ship's helicopter deck in front of an orange U.S. Coast Guard helicopter. The group includes USCG personnel in navy blue uniforms with tactical vests labeled 'USCG', military personnel in camouflage uniforms carrying weapons, and one individual in civilian clothing (blue shirt). All individuals are wearing face masks, suggesting this photo was taken during the COVID-19 pandemic era.
    A US Coast Guard rigid inflatable boat (RIB) numbered 26247 is underway at high speed on open blue water. Two crew members in orange survival suits and helmets are visible aboard the vessel. A flag, appearing to be the Cape Verde national flag, is mounted on the stern mast alongside navigation equipment.
    The image shows a group of personnel on the deck of a naval or coast guard vessel at sea. Multiple individuals wearing different uniforms and protective gear, including helmets with communications equipment and SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus) units, appear to be conducting a boarding or law enforcement operation. The vessel is underway in open blue ocean waters.
    A bright orange U.S. Coast Guard helicopter hovers near a white lighthouse situated on a rocky coastal promontory. A person appears to be suspended below the helicopter on a hoist line, suggesting an active search and rescue operation. A crowd of spectators is visible on the rocky point near the lighthouse, observing the operation.
