    A military helicopter hovers low over a ship's flight deck while two crew members in red uniforms and helmets manage a sling load hook beneath the aircraft. A white cargo container is positioned to the right on the deck, suggesting an active vertical replenishment (VERTREP) or cargo transfer operation at sea. The image is taken from a low angle looking up toward the helicopter against a bright blue sky over open ocean.

    Civil service mariner crew members onboard the Military Sealift Command dry cargo/ammunition ship USNS Richard E. Byrd (T-AKE 4) assist with helicopter operations during the Navy’s first at-sea aircraft carrier helicopter transfer of an F135 engine power module load simulator, March 6, off the coast of San Diego. The module was transferred from the deck of Byrd to the U.S. Navy’s Nimitz-class nuclear aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) and back to Byrd via EurocopterAS332 Super Puma and a U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters.

    A white military or coast guard helicopter hovers low over the deck of a naval vessel at sea. Two deck crew members in red gear are using a pole to manage a grounding line or hook beneath the helicopter, likely during a vertical replenishment or cargo transfer operation. A white equipment container is visible on the ship's deck in the background.
    A military helicopter is performing a vertical replenishment (VERTREP) operation over the flight deck of a naval vessel at sea. The helicopter is carrying a large cargo container suspended by sling load cables, positioning it for delivery onto the ship's deck. The image is taken from a low angle looking upward, with the sun directly behind the helicopter creating a dramatic lens flare effect.
    Two crew members wearing red safety vests and hearing protection are running across a naval ship's flight deck as a white civilian helicopter hovers above. The scene appears to depict a vertical replenishment or personnel transfer operation at sea. The ship's deck markings, open ocean horizon, and cargo container are clearly visible in bright daylight conditions.
    Two individuals wearing red protective suits and helmets with reflective visors are working together outdoors near a body of water. One person is holding a long pole or rod upright at an angle while the other provides support. The scene is backlit by bright sunlight against a blue sky with scattered clouds.
    Four military personnel, appearing to be U.S. Marines, are working on the deck of a naval vessel at sea. They are wearing camouflage uniforms, red safety vests, helmets with ear protection, and face masks while handling large military cargo containers secured with chains. The operation appears to be a deck cargo handling or replenishment-at-sea evolution.
