The USS Nimitz suddenly emerges from the swirling clouds of a strangely electrified maelstrom. 2 F-14 Tomcats sit at cats 1 and 2 straining against their launch shuttles in full afterburner. An E2-C Hawkeye taxis slightly behind them waiting for its turn. A figure in yellow gives a snap salute and leans into the wind screaming over the bow of the carrier as it slices through the dark blue ocean......
