Master-at-Arms Seaman Terrance Mathis, left, from Maryland, and Master-at-Arms 2nd Class Arturo Fern, right, from Arizona, both assigned to security department, participate in a close quarters battle drill aboard Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN-73), while underway in the Philippine Sea June 4, 2026. The George Washington Carrier Strike Group (GWACSG) is operating in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations. George Washington is the U.S. Navy’s premiere forward-deployed aircraft carrier, a long-standing symbol of the United States’ commitment to maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific, while operating alongside allies and partners across the U.S. Navy’s largest numbered fleet.
