U.S. Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class Jonathan Grant, a boatswain's mate assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, removes painting tape from the bottom of “Oscar,” a 75-foot mechanized landing craft operated by Sailors assigned to the Navy Boat Docks at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., Oct. 29, 2018. From top to bottom, the entire vessel was refurbished at a commercial boat yard near Beaufort, N.C., where it could be removed from the water. From sand-blasting barnacles off the bottom, to applying multiple coats of paint, to repairing dings and dents the boat has suffered throughout the past two years; every effort was made to keep the boat seaworthy for future operations.
