The battleship 'Lord Nelson' (1906) is at anchor to her stern, with 'Temeraire' (1907) anchored behind in the distance. To the right, off 'Agamemnon's' bow is the battleship 'Hibernia' (1905).

USN:
Three Sikorsky SH-3A Sea King from Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 6 (HS-6) "Indians", flying over the aircraft carrier USS Kearsarge (CVS-33).
HS-6 was assigned to Carrier Anti-submarine Air Group 53 (CVSG-53) aboard Kearsarge. The picture was taken after the 1962 FRAM-modernisation, but the carrier still carries the SPS-8A radar.
Also, the Sea Kings are not yet painted in the grey/white scheme, therefore the date is therefore probably 1962–1964

RN:
HMS Victorious in Hvalfjord, 1942.
A Fairey Fulmar fighter taking off from HMS Victorious during flying exercising in March of 1942
HMS Victorious off Honolulu, 1943, while serving with the USN from November 1942 to September 1943
The ship still belonged to the Royal Navy and was operated by a Royal Navy crew. There were a few additional USN personnel embarked to operate radio and communication equipment etc, to ensure familiarity when operating with USN forces. The ship was given the codename 'Robin', which was standard procedure. But at one point when asked 'What ship?' Victorious replied 'USS Robin' as a cheeky response.
Probably more accurate to think of Victorious being detached for operations in the Pacific under USN operational control rather than 'loaned'.
Town class cruiser HMS Birmingham alongside in Copenhagen after the end of the war in Europe, 9 May 1945
Town class cruiser HMS Birmingham entering the Grand Harbour at Malta, late 1950s
HMS Victorious replenishing fuel and stores from RFA Wave Baron and RFA Lyness in the Mediterranean
