I took these on board CVN-73 USS George Washington over 20 years ago. Was collecting/processing engine data for the F-14B Tomcat (as a civilian). I think every taxpayer should see the fantastic work that YOUNG men and women do every day for their country. Sure, there are always some clowns, but I was most impressed by the 18, 19, 20 year-olds on that ship!!
First pic are 2 F-14Bs in the queue for launch on the waist catapults from squadrons VF-142 "Ghostriders" and VF-143 "Pukin' Dogs". Second pic is after we pulled in to Port Everglades, FL. Fly Navy!!
