North Atlantic Ocean (July 12, 2004) -- The Los
Angeles-class submarine USS Albuquerque (SSN 706)
surfaces in the Atlantic Ocean while participating in
Majestic Eagle 2004. Majestic Eagle is a multinational
exercise being conducted off the coast of Morocco. The
exercise demonstrates the combined force capabilities
and quick response times of the participating naval,
air, undersea and surface warfare groups. Countries
involved in the NATO led exercise include the United
Kingdom, Morocco, France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and
Turkey. Truman's participation in Majestic Eagle is part
of her scheduled deployment supporting the Navy's new
fleet response plan (FRP) Summer Pulse 2004, the
simultaneous deployment of seven carrier strike groups
(CSGs), demonstrating the ability of the Navy to provide
credible combat across the globe, in five theaters with
other U.S., allied, and coalition military forces. U.S.
