Dynamics all over. The yellow shirt (flight deck operations) on the left is directing the S-3B in position at the catapult under the careful eyes of two white shirts (deck safety officers), walking left and right of the wings. A green shirt (equipment) in the middle shows a weight board to the catapult officer (sitting right) with the weight of the aircraft projected. The catapult officer programmes the catapult's steam to the right level in which the Viking can reach its take-off speed. The yellow shirt shooter (also right) will then be ready for its procedure to launch the aircraft.

Lockheed S-3B Viking of Sea Control Squadron (VS) 32 "Maulers" manoeuvring over the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) while sailing through the Arabian/Persian Gulf. Yellow shirts are worn by aircraft handlers and aircraft directors that shuttle aircraft around the carrier's tight and chaotic deck. Catapult Officers and Arresting Gear Officers also wear yellow shirts. Because yellow shirts are so involved with taxiing aircraft, they are often featured prominently in dramatic photos depicting carrier deck operations. This photo was made during the sundown cruise (the very final deployment) of the S-3B.

Unit is VS-32 'Maulers'.
