The hangar deck is one of the most critical spaces on the ship as it provides and area where extensive aircraft maintenance is performed. V- 3 is responsible for the safe and orderly movement and storage of up to 33 aircraft in the hangar bay, often with only inches to spare. The hangar bay is also the show place for the ship ' s ceremonies and receptions, and is used extensively by Supply, Weapons, AIMD and Deck Departments. The Sailors of V-3 expertly move aircraft in the hangar bay ' s extremely tight quarters and coordinate the movement and storage of other equipment and supplies. ENDURING FREEDOM 73
