Tail Hook the USS George Washington Aircraft Carrier

Aircraft carriers are quite possibly the ultimate military weapon. I had the enormous good fortune to stay overnight on a US Navy aircraft carrier - the USS George Washington - while it was on duty at sea. While onboard, I was able to take well over 100 aircraft carrier photos, some of which are published my story. Landing on an aircraft carrier is hard to describe. Being shot from the catapult is an even harder task. I survived both and am glad we have patriots who serve each day aboard these fine ships to protect our freedom.
