Cool Navy Pictures

We have some really cool pictures from E's Navy career. Take a look.

This is the USS Providence, E's home for 335 days in 2001. Thankfully he doesn't mind small spaces.


A tomahawk launch from a submarine.

The Enterprise battle group in 2001.

E's ship in Guam, USS Frank Cable AS40. It is a submarine tender which means it's duty is to take care of submarines.


Look at the size of that anchor.

Here's a poor fella now in need of help.

The USS Kitty Hawk pulled into Guam

and brought a friend, but unfortunately, we can't remember her name.

This is one of the Kitty Hawk's helicopters in to get supplies. The maneuver is called a 'Vertrep', for vertical replenishment.

Guam welcomes the USS Nimitz.

That's a lot of supplies

and mail.

The Nimitz on the way out. It takes a lot to get one of these things turned around.


Have a great weekend!

Should have stuck around for the '03 deployment. We had even more fun then.
