MEDITERRANEAN SEA (May 15, 2018) A Sailor assigned to the “Knighthawks” of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 136, performs maintenance on the landing gear of an F/A-18E Super Hornet on the flight deck aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75).
As the Carrier Strike Group 8 flag ship, Truman's support of Operation Inherent Resolve demonstrates the capability and flexibility of U.S. Naval Forces, and its resolve to eliminate the terrorist group ISIS and the threat it poses.
