180830-N-IC246-0219 ATLANTIC OCEAN (Aug. 30, 2018) The Nimitz-class aircraft carriers USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72), left, and USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75), right, and the guided-missile destroyer USS Mason (DDG 87), center, transit the Atlantic Ocean in formation as aircraft fly in formation overhead as part of a photo exercise in support of dual-carrier sustainment and qualification. In addition to demonstrating the Navy’s inherent flexibility and scalability, this evolution provides the opportunity to conduct complex, multi-unit training to enhance maritime interoperability and combat readiness; prepare the Navy to protect our homeland; and preserve and promote peace anywhere around the world.
