At sea aboard USS George Washington (CVN 73) Jul. 15, 2002 -- Arresting Gear Officer Lt. Stacey Wright from San Francisco, CA, watches the landing area as an EA-6B Prowler from the "Scorpions" of Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron One Three Two (VAQ-132) lands on the flight deck.  The “Prowler” provides an umbrella of protection over strike aircraft, ground troops, and ships by jamming enemy radar, electronic data-links, and communications.  George Washington and her embarked Carrier Air Wing One Seven (CVW-17) are on a scheduled six-month deployment conducting missions in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.  U.S. Navy photo by Photographer’s Mate 3rd Class T.J.
