    A helicopter is conducting a vertical replenishment (VERTREP) operation over what appears to be a naval vessel's deck, lowering a cargo net filled with supplies. Two personnel are visible on deck — one in a yellow vest marked 'FLT DV CPO' and another in green utilities with a white helmet — overseeing the cargo transfer. Multiple netted cargo pallets are stacked on the deck to the right, indicating an active logistics resupply operation.

Dylan Anetipa-Cabrera, an embarker with Combat Cargo, observe an Airbus H225 Super Puma helicopter during a vertical replenishment-at-sea with the Dry Cargo and Ammunition Ship USNS Carl Brashear (T-AKE 7), aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8) flight deck. The Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group and the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit are deployed to the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations in support of naval operations to ensure maritime stability and security in the Central Region, connecting the Mediterranean and the Pacific through the western Indian Ocean and three strategic choke points.
