EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the impressive coordination and precision of a Vertical Replenishment at Sea (VERTREP) between HMS Ocean and RFA Fort Austin off the North West Coast of Scotland. The image showcases the seamless transfer of essential supplies from the fleet support store ship to the aircraft carrier. In the foreground, we see a Lynx Mk7 helicopter belonging to 847 NAS, poised for action. Its sleek design hints at its agility in executing critical missions. Meanwhile, a Sea King Mk4 hovers above with an underslung load, ready to transport vital cargo between vessels. The vast expanse of sea serves as a dramatic backdrop for this remarkable display of naval operations. It is evident that these skilled servicemen are well-trained in their roles, ensuring smooth logistics even in challenging maritime conditions. This striking photograph was submitted by LA Phot Shaun Barlow as part of the Peregrine 06 Photographic Competition. Through his lens, he has captured not only the technical prowess but also the sheer beauty and power inherent in military operations. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate the dedication and teamwork displayed by our armed forces as they work tirelessly to ensure our safety and security on both land and sea.
