Go NAVY Aviators!
WASHINGTON Strike aircraft from Carrier Air Wing 7 carried out combat strikes against ISIS targets in Iraq and Syria Friday, flying in from the eastern Mediterranean rather than the Persian Gulf or Arabian Sea.

Wonder what the ROEs are? Kind of risky landing on a bird farm loaded out for bombing sorties.

WOW Rick, I didn't know it looks led that small to them. There are so many hero pilots and aviators, rotary and fixed wing. Those guy's are phenomenal. Thanks for sharing, Rick.
