On board the Royal Fleet Auxiliary fleet replenishment ship Olna (1965) while under way in the English Channel during the NATO exercise Peacekeeper. The photographer is on the starboard side of the forward superstructure looking aft and to starboard showing the fore part of the Royal Navy destroyer Diana (1952) approaching to take on bunkers. The pendant number of the destroyer is D126 and her 'B' turret is trained to starboard. Everything aft of her motor boat abaft the break of the forecastle is out of the picture.
