Is that you MikeD.....? I remember when I was on The Ranger, enroute to Perth and we were tied to a ship identical to the one you were landing on...We were taking on supplies, fuel, etc....There were a couple of helo's going back and forth....Some Ra-Tard decided he wnated out of the Navy....What did he do you ask...? He jumped from mid-level into teh sea between the carrier and the supply ship. We had to do an emergency break-away, cu the fuel lines, etc.....We the guy didn't get out of the Navy he bunked in the Brig for a long time and then when we got back to San Diego, they kicked him out....
