PHILIPPINE SEA (Feb. 2, 2024) U.S. Navy Intelligence Specialist 2nd Class Cassandra Medel, right, assigned to the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71), embraces her father, Chief Aviation Boatswain’s Mate (Fuels) David Medel, assigned to USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70), aboard Theodore Roosevelt, Feb. 2, 2024. Theodore Roosevelt and Carl Vinson conducted a cross-deck family visit so that relatives and spouses stationed aboard the two ships could see one another while at sea. Theodore Roosevelt, flagship of Carrier Strike Group Nine, is underway conducting routine operations in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations. An integral part of U.S. Pacific Fleet, U.S. 7th Fleet operates naval forces in the Indo-Pacific and provides the realistic, relevant training necessary to execute the U.S. Navy’s role across the full spectrum of military operations – from combat operations to humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. U.S. 7th Fleet works together with our allies and partners to advance freedom of navigation, the rule of law, and other principles that underpin security for the Indo-Pacific region.
