About the Painting

Adak Alaska was the location of Fleet Ex '83, a joint effort between the U.S. Navy and the Canadians designed to practice military maneuvers under extreme weather conditions.  Due to wind factors, as the warm Japanese current meets the frigid Arctic air at the Pacific rim, the weather can swing from warm sunny days to brutally cold temperatures as extreme as 45 degrees below zero.  The catch phrase in that area is "if you don\'t like the temperature now, wait an hour."  This painting depicts an A-6 Intruder in bad weather, with a centered "meat ball" just prior to a carrier trap. The specks on the painting are snow flakes and not stars as many think.
