PACIFIC OCEAN (April 10, 2023) The Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer USS Stethem (DDG 63) preforms a break away from the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70), not pictured, following a fueling-at-sea in the Pacific Ocean. Stethem is currently underway conducting Group Sail. Group Sail demonstrates the Carl Vinson Carrier Strike Group's ability to rapidly aggregate the strike group units and provides an opportunity to conduct progress training to enhance levels of excellence, increase lethality and tactical proficiency of U.S. Navy units operating in the 3rd Fleet area of operation.
