Personnel move about the flight deck during night operations aboard the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63). Personnel working on the flight deck wear reflective tape on their personal protection equipment and communicate with a unique sign language using special colored flashlights. Kitty Hawk is currently under way in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), demonstrating power projection and sea control as the world's only permanently forward-deployed aircraft carrier, operating from Yokosuka, Japan.

Part of JASEX'04, CV-63 was some three days shy of having been forced to depart the island early due to the approach of Super Typhoon Chaba. CVW-5 can be seen on deck with F/A-18Fs (VFA-102), F/A-18Cs (VFA-192 and VFA-195), and admittedly rare S-3Bs from VS-21 Fighting Redtails. Less picturesque is the tail of an EA-6B (VAQ-136) to the left side of the photograph.
Notably similar is post #413.
