Sustainment at Sea

07/15/2020

The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) participates in a replenishment-at-sea with the dry cargo and ammunition ship USNS Medgar Evers (T-AKE 13).

The Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group (HSTCSG) remains at sea in the Atlantic Ocean as a certified carrier strike group ready for tasking in order to protect the crew from the risks posed by COVID-19, following their successful deployment to the U.S. 5th and 6th Fleet areas of operation.

Keeping HSTCSG at sea in the U.S. 2nd Fleet, in the sustainment phase of OFRP, allows the ship to maintain a high level of readiness during the COVID-19 pandemic.
