Summary
| Description | Pilots assigned to Carrier Air Wing Three (CVW-3) perform a Missing Man Flyover formation, above USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75), during a wreath laying ceremony held on the flight deck in memory of Capt. Franklin Hooks II, assigned to the “Silver Eagles” of Marine Fighter-Attack squadron One One Five (VMFA-115). Hooks died when his F/A-18 Hornet jet crashed while conducting exercises off the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman near the Azores Islands on June 26. Hooks began his military career as an Electronics Technician when he joined the Navy in 1990. In 1993 he was appointed to the U.S. Naval Academy, from which he graduated in 1997. Truman (CVN 75) is participating in Majestic Eagle, a multinational exercise being conducted off the coast of Morocco. The exercise demonstrates the combined force capabilities and quick response times of the participating naval, air, undersea and surface warfare groups. Countries involved in the U.S.-led exercise include the United Kingdom, Morocco, France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey. Truman's participation in Majestic Eagle is part of her scheduled deployment supporting the Navy's new fleet response plan (FRP) Summer Pulse 2004, the simultaneous deployment of seven carrier strike groups (CSGs), demonstrating the ability of the Navy to provide credible combat across the globe, in five theaters with other U.S., allied, and coalition military forces. |
