    Military personnel, appearing to be U.S. Navy sailors in digital camouflage uniforms, are donning or handling firefighting gear in what appears to be a ship's interior compartment. The space is equipped with firefighting equipment including turnout gear, red helmets, SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) tanks, and boots laid out on the deck. This appears to be a damage control or firefighting drill conducted aboard a naval vessel.

    U.S. Naval Academy and Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps midshipmen practice damage control drills aboard the Independence-variant littoral combat ship USS Manchester (LCS 14) at Naval Base San Diego, July 8, 2026. The summer training program fully integrates midshipmen into shipboard crews, providing vital operational exposure and inspiring the Navy's next generation of surface warfare leaders. Littoral combat ships are fast, optimally-manned, mission-tailored surface combatants that operate in near-shore and open-ocean environments, winning against 21st-century coastal threats.
