PACIFIC OCEAN (Aug. 6, 2008) -- An EA-6B Prowler assigned to Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 136 launches from the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63) for the last time. Carrier Air Wing 5 aircraft flew off Kitty Hawk to join the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73) in San Diego.  George Washington will replace Kitty Hawk as the Navy's only carrier operating from Japan in September.  Kitty Hawk is headed back to the U.S. mainland for decommissioning in early 2009.  U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Kyle D.
