230904-N-NF288-070 SOUTH CHINA SEA (Sep. 4, 2023) Cryptologic Technician Collection 1st Class Ethan McNeelan, from Napa, California, left, and Lt. j.g Sydney Tse, from Bayonne, New Jersey, right, pose for a photo with their Navy traditional fancy work during a steel beach picnic on the flight deck of the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Ralph Johnson (DDG 114), Sep. 4 in the South China Sea. Fancy work is a centuries old form of decorative knot tying, often used for providing grip on rails and stanchions in rough seas, and as lanyards for the boatswain’s pipe. Ralph Johnson is assigned to Commander, Task Force 71/Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 15, the Navy’s largest forward-deployed DESRON and the U.S. 7th Fleet’s principal surface force.
