Story Number: NNS170103-17Release Date: 1/3/2017 3:13:00 PM From U.S. 3rd Fleet Public Affairs SAN DIEGO (NNS) -- Ships and units from the Carl Vinson Strike Group (CVNSG) will depart San Diego for a regularly-scheduled deployment to the Western Pacific, Jan. 5 and Jan. 6. The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70), Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 2, and embarked Destroyer Squadron (CDS) 1 will deploy with Ticonderoga class guided-missile cruiser USS Lake Champlain (CG 57) and Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers USS Michael Murphy (DDG 112) and USS Wayne E. Meyer (DDG 108). Homeported in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, Michael Murphy will join CVNSG later this month as the strike group makes its way to the Western Pacific. CVNSG will deploy with approximately 7,500 Sailors and will focus on maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts. The strike group assets will conduct bilateral exercises in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region to include anti-submarine warfare, maneuvering drills, gunnery exercises and visit, board, search and seizure subject matter expert exchanges. Carl Vinson will also embark the aviation squadrons of CVW-2 which include the "Black Knights" of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 4, the "Blue Hawks" of Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron (HSM 78), the "Bounty Hunters" of Strike Fighter Squadrons (VFA) 2, the "Blue Blasters" of VFA-34, the "Krestrels" of VFA-137, the "Golden Dragons" of VFA-192, the "Black Eagles" of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron (VAW) 113, the "Gauntlets" of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 136 and the "Providers" of Fleet Logistic Support Squadron (VRC) 30. U.S. 3rd Fleet leads naval forces in the Pacific and provides the realistic, relevant training necessary for an effective global Navy. Third Fleet constantly coordinates with U.S. 7th Fleet to plan and execute missions based on their complementary strengths to promote ongoing peace, security, and stability throughout the entire Pacific theater of operations.

Hello! My son has orders to the CVN-70 and we are all extremely excited.  My husband (who used to serve on the CVN-70 himself) and I are hoping to experience a tiger cruise in the future.  I do have a few questions that I hope someone on here might be able to answer for after his A-school when he reports to the Vinson.  He was thinking on getting his car as well as a few things from home and driving it to the base after A-school.  Is he able to keep his car there on base and will it cost him?  Also, we are planning to go with him in a separate vehicle as he travels to base (we live about 6 hrs away) this way he's not making the drive alone.  Once he is there at base would we (his mom and dad) be allowed to go on base with him? We would probably be arriving on a Friday night and leaving on Sunday morning - is there Navy lodging we could stay at or will we require a hotel off base? Thanks in advance!
