That does sound like it is very disruptive. You would think they would have offered crew swaps since I am sure the guys from Virginia did not want to go to Japan either, well maybe not.

The Roosevelt will take the place of the USS Ronald Reagan, which is currently based in San Diego but will steam to Yokosuka, Japan, this summer to replace the George Washington. The original Reagan crew will bring the Washington stateside for its overhaul and then rotate onto the Roosevelt in San Diego.

The rare crew shift has already inspired a “Three Presidents” logo, designed by a Reagan crewmember.
