Fire Controlman 3rd Class Andres Perez, from Harlingen, Texas, and Senior Chief Samuel Murfree, from Hinesville, Georgia, both assigned to combat systems department’s weapon systems division, loads ammunition into the forward-mounted Phalanx Close-In Weapon System (CIWS), aboard Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73) while underway in the Pacific Ocean, May 26, 2025. George Washington is 7th Fleet’s premier forward-deployed aircraft carrier, a long-standing symbol of the United States’ commitment to maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific region, while operating alongside Allies and partners across the U.S. Navy’s largest numbered fleet.
