Pacific Ocean (Aug. 2, 2004) -- A Sailor assigned to the amphibious
assault ship USS Boxer (LHD 4) pushes on the hull of the ship to
straighten the Captain's Gig, as it is lowered into the water. This Gig
is a diesel powered motorboat which provides ship-to-shore and
ship-to-ship transportation for the ship's captain and his official
guests. Boxer recently returned from the central command area of
responsibility where they helped off-load personnel and equipment
supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). U.S. Navy photo by
