PACIFIC OCEAN (July 19, 2007) -- Aviation Ordnanceman Airman Jason Rowe
fires a .50-caliber machine gun from the fantail of Nimitz-class
aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) during a graded,
live-fire "killer barrel" exercise. Killer barrel tests the ability of
Lincoln's machine gun crews to engage and destroy small surface threats
by firing on floating target barrels equipped with smoke markers.
Lincoln is underway conducting carrier qualifications off the coast of
