At sea aboard USS George Washington (CVN 73) Jul. 15, 2002 -- Arresting

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

a scheduled six-month deployment conducting missions in support of
Operation Enduring Freedom. U.S. Navy photo by
