Arabian Gulf (Mar. 14, 2003) -- An aircraft director signals to an E-2C Hawkeye to move forward in preparation for launch from one of four steam driven catapults on the flight deck of USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63).  Kitty Hawk and her embarked Carrier Air Wing Five (CVW-5) are operating in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.  Kitty Hawk is the Navy's only permanently forward-deployed aircraft carrier and operates out of Yokosuka, Japan.  U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 3rd Class Todd Frantom.  (RELEASED)
