USS Eisenhower Jan 09:

A special visit was made to the USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier on January 11, 2009.  The visit included being brought to the ship through the air and touching down on the deck.  It was a Top Gun moment.

"It was a once in a life time opportunity.  Always have been proud to be an American, but seeing such a massive display of power will really make you think “wow” we should all be going to bed thinking we are well protected.  Average age of the sailors on this ship was 20 years old.  Total crew size was 6200.  Really a neat experience."

Here are a few pictures from the visit!
