    A naval flight deck crew member wearing a yellow safety vest marked 'DDG 115' and a white helmet is directing helicopter operations on a ship's flight deck. A military helicopter, likely an MH-60 Seahawk, is visible in the background with crew members and pilots nearby. The scene takes place at sea under overcast skies.
    A U.S. Navy MH-60R Seahawk helicopter is hovering over the flight deck of a naval vessel at sea. The helicopter is armed with what appear to be AGM-114 Hellfire missiles on its starboard weapons pylon. The rotor blades are in motion, and the ocean is visible in the background with white wake from the ship.
    A naval flight deck crew member wearing green jersey and helmet with hearing protection is giving hand signals on what appears to be a military ship's flight deck. The green color of his jersey indicates he is likely a catapult and arresting gear officer or aircraft handling crew member. Additional personnel in various colored jerseys are visible in the background near the ship's superstructure.
