Persian Gulf (Dec. 14, 2005) -- An S-3B Viking, assigned to the
"Scouts" of Sea Control Squadron Two Four (VS-24), prepares to launch
from the flight deck of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Theodore
Roosevelt (CVN 71). This is VS-24's last deployment due to the squadron
being decommissioned in 2007 with the retirement of the S-3B Viking
aircraft. Roosevelt and embarked Carrier Air Wing Eight (CVW-8) are
currently underway on a regularly scheduled deployment conducting
maritime security operations. U.S. Navy photo by Illustrator Draftsman
