ATLANTIC OCEAN (Aug. 30, 2018) The aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) and guided-missile destroyer USS Mason (DDG 87) transit from a formation during dual-carrier sustainment and qualification operations with the Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group. In addition to demonstrating the Navy’s inherent flexibility and scalability, this evolution provides the opportunity to conduct complex, multi-unit training to enhance maritime interoperability and combat readiness; prepare the Navy to protect our homeland; and preserve and promote peace anywhere around the world.
