    USS Nimitz (CVN 68)   

    NAVAL BASE KITSAP-BREMERTON, Wash. (Jan. 12, 2017) – Capt. Kevin Lenox, right, salutes Vice Adm. Mike Shoemaker, commander of Naval Air Forces, as Capt. John Ring watches, signifying his acceptance of duties as commanding officer of the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN 68) during a change of command ceremony. Ring oversaw the largest work package executed in a planned incremental availability outside of dry-dock, as well as an expedited inter-deployment training cycle during his tour from 2014 to 2017. Lenox will oversee Nimitz through the Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV) and Composite Training Exercise (COMPTUEX), which will certify Nimitz, Carrier Strike Group 11, Carrier Air Wing 11 and Destroyer Squadron 9 for an upcoming 2017 deployment.
