The Suez Canal... the fourth time Locally produced I Did the Ditch certificate another unique aspect of GW's maiden deployment Passing through the Suez Canal the fourth time was a less than unique experience for the crew. “Been there, done that” was a common phrase heard around the mess decks that day. For those not on watch, sightseeing was replaced with shopping for cruise jackets, sunbathing and card playing. What did make the last transit special, however, was news of a unique canal certificate designed by LIC(SW AW) Lee Maydcn and printed by GW’s Print Shop. Normally, ship's purchase certificates from a private company. Unfor tclv. the certificates are mass produced ai . k like everyone clse's... nothing unique ait them. But aboard GW, the crew’s “I Dili t Ditch” certificate was unique because it v a ally produced and artistically designed. 224 Suez Canal

Operations Southern Watch and Vigilant Warrior proved the value and flexibility of the GW CVW-7 team Just as when the GW CVW-7 team was called on earlier in the deployment to support the U.N. sanctioned “No-Fly Zone” over Iraq as part of Operation Southern Watch, the team again responded with formidable efficiency and speed to help dispel any notions Saddam Hussein might have had of reinvading Kuwait. The stepped up pace of flight operations in the Arabian Gulf during the month of October, along with a corresponding buildup of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine and coalition force assets, brought home the point in the only way it seemed Hussein could understand: GW and its allies were more than capable of carrying out another successful campaign to protect the sovereignty of the tiny Arab state. “George Washington and the air wing worked with military forces from many countries along with other elements of our own Air Force and Army,” LCDR Tim Doorey. C'VIC Intel Officer said. Was the pace hectic? At times the heat and tempo of operations felt brutal to not only pilots and flight deck personnel, but to everyone inside the ship. Flexibility being the operative word, the GW CVW-7 team led the way by adapting to each and every new mission posed to the crew... planned or unplanned. Vigilant Warrior 223
