South Atlantic Ocean (Jun. 7, 2004) -- Aviation Electrician's Mate Dawson Lorton, from Bartlesville, Okla., participates in a wash-down of an E-2C Hawkeye assigned to the "Wallbangers" of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron One One Seven (VAW-117) aboard USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). Reagan is in the South Atlantic Ocean circumnavigating South America during her transit to her new homeport of San Diego, Calif., while participating in exercises supporting Summer Pulse 2004. Summer Pulse 2004 is the simultaneous deployment of seven aircraft carrier strike groups (CSGs), demonstrating the ability of the Navy to provide credible combat power across the globe, in five theaters with other U.S., allied, and coalition military forces. Summer Pulse is the Navy first deployment under its new Fleet Readiness Plan (FRP). U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate Airman Kevin S. O'Brien (RELEASED)
