03/23/05 - The Marine MV-22 Osprey is attached to VMX-22 from Marine Corp. Air Station (MCAS) New River, N.C. takes off from the flight deck aboard USS Nassau (LHA 4), on March 23, 2005. Nassau worked with the Osprey for the first time during a weeklong underway. Nassau's Air Department spent a month preparing for the evolution by sending personnel to Chambers Field, Norfolk, Va. to view the Osprey during flight operations.
