An HH-60H Sea Hawk helicopter assigned to the Black Knights of Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 4 releases countermeasure flares while passing the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan during a tiger cruise. Tiger cruises allow friends and family of deployed sailors and Marines to spend time aboard a sea-going vessel to experience the ship's day-to-day operations. Ronald Reagan is returning from a seven-month deployment. (U.S. Navy photo by Petty Officer 3rd Class Alexander Tidd)
