    Two naval personnel are conducting a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation, with one crew member firing a line-throwing gun to establish a connection between two vessels. The person in the red helmet and life vest is aiming the line-throwing rifle toward a second ship visible in the background. Both individuals are standing on the deck of a warship, wearing safety gear appropriate for the operation.
    Two naval vessels are conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea, with transfer lines and hoses visibly connected between them. The ships are sailing in moderately rough seas with white-capped waves churning between the hulls. The image is taken from the deck of the receiving vessel looking toward the supply ship.

A large fueling or transfer probe/connector is visible in the foreground, with rigging cables and tensioning equipment. In the background, crew members on the adjacent vessel are visible on deck, wearing colored hard hats.
