Atlantic Ocean (Jun. 18, 2004) - An MH-60S Knighthawk helicopter
assigned to the "Chargers" of Helicopter Combat Support Squadron
Six (HC-6), prepares to depart the fantail of the aircraft carrier USS
Enterprise (CVN 65) with a load of ordnance. Enterprise Weapons
Department personnel use diesel forklifts to stage more ordnance on an
aircraft elevator during an ammunition offload with the fast combat
support ship USS Detroit (AOE 4). Enterprise and Detroit are currently
underway in support of Summer Pulse 2004 Exercise. Summer Pulse 2004 is
the simultaneous deployment of seven aircraft carrier strike groups
(CSGs), demonstrating the ability of the Navy to provide credible
combat across the globe, in five theaters with other U.S., allied, and
coalition military forces. Summer Pulse is the Navy's first deployment
under its new Fleet Response Plan (FRP). U.S. Navy photo by
