Unfortunate that with mission complete, Truman Is serving as "Ready Carrier" in the Atlantic instead of riverside in Norfolk. Enjoyed my visit to ship last August for a retirement ceremony.

Unfortunately they have to remain out. But it is for their safety and health as well as to be ready to defend the US if needed. Wish them the best.

Ironically they are the only few people in the world right now who don't have to worry about getting it.
