Aviation Boatswain's Mate (Handling) 2nd Class Micah Love, from Memphis, Tennessee, left, inspects Aviation Boatswain's Mate (Handling) Airman Jayden Orstead, from Colleen, Texas, both assigned to the first-in-class aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford’s (CVN 78) air department, during a bunker drill in the hangar bay, March 22, 2023. Ford is underway in the Atlantic Ocean executing its Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX), an intense, multi-week exercise designed to fully integrate a carrier strike group as a cohesive, multi-mission fighting force and to test their ability to carry out sustained combat operations from the sea. As the first-in-class ship of Ford-class aircraft carriers, CVN 78 represents a generational leap in the U.S. Navy's capacity to project power on a global scale.
