Summary

WESTERN PACIFIC (Jun. 25, 2017) Sailors use a vertical package conveyor to move boxes from the hanger bay to below decks during a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) aboard the Navy's forward-deployed aircraft carrier, USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). During a RAS, the ship is refueled, restocked with fresh food, and receives mail while out to sea. Ronald Reagan, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 5, provides a combat-ready force that protects and defends the collective maritime interests of its allies and partners in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.

Aircraft carriers are warships that act as airbases for carrier-based aircraft. In the United States Navy, these consist of ships commissioned with hull classification symbols CV (aircraft carrier), CVA (attack aircraft carrier), CVB (large aircraft carrier), CVL (light aircraft carrier), CVN (aircraft carrier (nuclear propulsion) and CVAN (attack aircraft carrier (nuclear propulsion). The first aircraft carrier commissioned into the United States Navy was USS Langley (CV-1) on 20 March 1922.
