180503-N-ZH683-0282 MEDITERRANEAN SEA (May 3, 2018) An EA-18G Growler, assigned to the "Rooks" of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 137, is the first jet to launch from the flight deck aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) in support of Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) for Truman's 2018 deployment May 3, 2018. As the Carrier Strike Group 8 flag ship, Truman's support of Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) demonstrates the capability and flexibility of U.S. Naval Forces, and its resolve to eliminate the terrorist group ISIS and the threat it poses.
