A U.S. Navy sailor signals the pilot of a Kaman SH-2G "Super Seasprite" of No. 6 Squadron Royal New Zealand Air Force on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS "George Washington" (CVN-73) as part of exercise "Talisman Sabre 2015". "Talisman Sabre" is a biennial exercise that provides an opportunity for nearly 30,000 U.S. and Australian defense forces to conduct operations in a combined, joint and interagency environment that will increase both countries' ability to plan and execute a full range of operations from combat missions to humanitarian assistance efforts.
