Two naval aviation deck crew members in green vests and red helmets are manually folding or unfolding a helicopter rotor blade on what appears to be an aircraft carrier flight deck. The helicopter visible in the background bears markings referencing CVW (Carrier Air Wing) and 'George Washington,' suggesting this is aboard USS George Washington (CVN-73). The crew members are lifting the rotor blade overhead in a coordinated effort.
