ARABAIN GULF (March 27, 2007) -- An F/A-18F Super Hornet, assigned to
the "Jolly Rogers" of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 103, lands on the
flight deck of Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower
(CVN 69). Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group and Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 7
are conducting a dual-carrier exercise with John C. Stennis Carrier
Strike Group and Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 9. This marks the first time
the Stennis and Eisenhower strike groups have operated together in a
joint exercise while deployed to 5th Fleet. This exercise demonstrates
the importance the ability for both strike groups to plan and conduct
dual task force operations as part of the Navy's commitment to
maintaining maritime security and stability in the region. U.S. Navy
