Adm. Timothy J. Keating (right), head of the U.S. Pacific Command, acts as a landing signal officer on the flight deck aboard the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk. LSOs are naval aviators who observe landing aircraft and communicate with the pilots to help safely land the aircraft. Kitty Hawk will be taking part in the 'Rim of the Pacific' exercise off Hawaii in July with units from Australia, Chile, Japan, the Netherlands, Peru, South Korea, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. This will be Kitty Hawk's last exercise before returning to the U.S. mainland for decommissioning in early 2009. Kitty Hawk will be replaced by USS George Washington this summer as the Navy's only forward-deployed aircraft carrier operating from Japan.
