    GULF OF TADJOURA (June 17, 2021) U.S. Navy Chief Boatswain’s Mate Kenneth Dequena, a patrol leader of Maritime Expeditionary Security Squadron Eleven (MSRON-11), based at Camp Lemonnier, conducts a mission brief to pick up four survivors rescued from a stranded fishing boat and picked up by USNS Patuxent (T-AO-201) June 17, 2021. The four Somali fishermen were stranded at sea after a mechanical failure and were without food or water for several days before Patuxent found them. Camp Lemonnier is an operational installation that enables U.S., allied and partner nation forces to be where and when they are needed to ensure security in Europe, Africa and Southwest Asia.

    A military service member in full tactical gear is piloting a small patrol boat on open water. The individual is wearing digital camouflage (NWU Type III/AOR2 pattern), a tactical helmet, ballistic sunglasses, and a tactical vest with a label reading 'TQ'. In the background, a larger naval vessel and what appears to be a second patrol boat are visible on the horizon.
    A group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered on a dock next to a patrol boat in what appears to be a port or harbor environment. The personnel appear to be conducting a briefing or equipment demonstration near the vessel. Industrial port infrastructure and cranes are visible across the water in the background.
    The image shows two military vessels operating together at sea — a U.S. Navy patrol boat (numbered 205, manufactured by SeaArk) alongside a larger gray patrol vessel marked 'GARDE P-06' bearing what appears to be a Djiboutian flag. Multiple personnel in military/tactical gear are visible on both vessels, suggesting a joint maritime operation or training exercise. The scene likely depicts U.S. Navy cooperation with Djiboutian coast guard or naval forces.
    A group of approximately eight individuals pose for a photograph at a naval port facility. The group includes personnel in US Navy digital camouflage uniforms, a person in desert camouflage, and several civilians wearing orange life vests and face masks. Naval patrol vessels and port cranes are visible in the background.
