receives fuel from a U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker during a combat
mission flown from the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson
(CVN 70). The Carl Vinson Carrier Strike Group is conducting operations
in support of multi-national forces in Iraq and maritime security
operations in the Persian Gulf. Carl Vinson will end its deployment
with a homeport shift to Norfolk, Va., and will conduct a three-year
refuel and complex overhaul. U.S. Navy photo by Cmdr. Don Berry
