    PACIFIC OCEAN (March 17, 2017) - Fire Controlman 1st Class Michael Petitt, a native of Norman, Okla., observes a live-fire exercise of a Phalanx Close-In Weapons System (CIWS) on board the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN 68). Nimitz is currently underway conducting Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX) with the Nimitz Carrier Strike in preparation for an upcoming deployment. COMPTUEX tests a carrier strike group's mission-readiness and ability to perform as an integrated unit through simulated real-world scenarios.
