At sea aboard USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63) November 27, 2001 -- After 58 days of sustained round the clock combat operations, crewmembers let off some steam and enjoy a "swim-call" during a break in flight operations. Kitty Hawk and her embarked Carrier Air Wing Five (CVW-5) are conducting missions in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.  Kitty Hawk operates out of Yokosuka, Japan, as America's only permanently forward-deployed aircraft carrier.
