    Aviation Structural Mechanic Airman John C. Bergner, assigned to Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Department (AIMD) IM-2 division, replaces the ring on a tire for an F/18-E Super Hornet in the tire shop on board the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN 68). Nimitz is currently underway participating in Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2012. Twenty-two nations, more than 40 ships and submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in the biennial Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) exercise from June 29 to Aug. 3, in and around the Hawaiian Islands. The world's largest international maritime exercise, RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity that helps participants foster and sustain the cooperative relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world's oceans. RIMPAC 2012 is the 23rd exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Jonathan A. Colon/RELEASED)
