Cable

ARABIAN GULF (June 4, 2008)- Aviation Boatswain's Mate (Equipment) Airman Nathan Ramirez holds up an arresting cable so that other Sailors assigned to Air Department's V-2 Division can swap out a part on the flight deck of Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72). USS Abraham Lincoln is deployed to the U.S. Navy 5th Fleet area of responsibility to support Maritime Security Operations (MSO). MSO help develop security in the maritime environment, which promotes stability and global prosperity. These operations complement the counterterrorism and security efforts of regional nations and seek to disrupt violent extremists' use of the maritime environment as a venue for attack or to transport personnel, weapons or other material.
