"The carrier George Washington is to sail Monday for the last time from Naval Station Norfolk, Va., its homeport since the ship was commissioned, on the cruise that will take it to its new assignment in Japan as the only U.S. forward-deployed carrier.
The ship is relieving the conventionally powered carrier Kitty Hawk, scheduled to return to the United States for decommissioning this summer. On the way, the Washington is scheduled to participate in the annual Partnership of the Americas exercise with South American navies, then continue around the continent and arrive in Japan by August."
