Description
A work party at replenishments stations on the Ikara deck (starboard side) of the Guided Missile Destroyer HMAS Hobart during Operation Sea Dragon. Sailors have just prepared empty cartridge cases for return by highline transfer to the USN Wrangell Class ammunition ship USS Diamond Head (not shown). A slinged pallet is being hauled across to the USN ship. In the background, fuel is also being pumped from the USN ship. Replenishments at sea ensured that HMA ships on the Gunline could work at a sustained tempo in maximizing their time on station.
