Persian Gulf


 

 

These are old pictures but I think they are interesting.

 

 

These are time-lapse photos of the recovery of the USS Cole. In the first photo, a transport ship is "flooded" to allow it underneath the disabled USS Cole. As the photos progress, the USS Cole is secured to the deck of the transport ship. Then the transport is slowly raised to the surface of the water to get underway.
