    APRA HARBOR, Guam (June 16, 2026) Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73) arrives in Guam for a scheduled port visit, June 16, 2026. The George Washington Carrier Strike Group is operating in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations. George Washington is the U.S. Navy’s premier 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.

    An elevated coastal view captures a large aircraft carrier navigating through open waters near a harbor or naval base, with dramatic rocky limestone outcroppings and turquoise shallow reef waters in the foreground. The scene is bathed in warm golden backlight from a partially obscured sun, suggesting either sunrise or sunset. The combination of military vessel, tropical coastline, and reef geography is consistent with a Pacific island naval installation.
