Arabian Sea (Feb. 16, 2007) -- An MH-60 Seahawk assigned to the "Dragon Whales" of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC-28) transfers cargo to the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69) from the Military Sealift Command fast combat support ship USNS Arctic (T-AOE 8) during an underway replenishment. Eisenhower and embarked Carrier Air Wing (CVW-7) are on a regularly scheduled deployment in support of Maritime Security Operations (MSO). MSO help set the conditions for security and stability in the maritime environment, as well as complement the counter-terrorism and security efforts of regional nations. These operations deny international terrorists use of the maritime environment as a venue for attack or to transport personnel weapons or other material.
