The USS Nimitz (CVN 68) (bottom) along with (from top left to right) the USS Higgins (DDG 76), the USS Antietam (CG 54) and the USS O'Kane (DDG 77) steam through the Gulf of Oman. All these ships are part of two different strike groups; the John C. Stennis Carrier Strike Group and Nimitz Carrier Strike Group, which are on regularly scheduled deployments in support of Maritime Operations. Maritime Operations help set the conditions for security and stability, as well as complement counter-terrorism and security efforts to regional nations.
