SEEN OFF WEST SEATTLE: USS John C. Stennis, headed back to Bremerton

Thanks to Jim Borrow for the photo – the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74), seen from West Seattle a little over an hour ago as it headed back to Bremerton after 13 days away. According to the Stennis website, it was out for “routine training for future operations” including “damage control and firefighting training, seamanship training, small boat operations, medical training, and exercises designed to maintain technical and tactical proficiency in a variety of warfare areas.”

    One bit of trivia. Due to their draft aircraft carriers only enter and leave Bremerton at exactly high tide.

Sorry, comment time is over.
