Navy and Coast Guard personnel come alongside the guided-missile frigate USS Nicholas (FFG 47) to transfer contraband that was dumped from a vessel during drug interdiction operations in support of Operation Martillo off the Pacific Coast of Colombia. The personnel recovered 112 bales of cocaine, weighing approximately 4,910 pounds, with an estimated street value of more than $367 million. Operation Martillo is a U.S., European, and western Hemisphere partner nation effort targeting illicit trafficking routes in coastal waters along the Central American isthmus. (U.S. Navy photo)
