Crew swap ceremony for U.S. aircraft carriers held in San Diego

A crew swap ceremony takes place on the U.S. aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan's deck in San Diego, California, on Aug. 24, 2015. Nearly two-thirds of the servicemembers who departed Japan aboard the U.S. aircraft carrier George Washington are returning to Yokosuka on the Reagan which left San Diego on Aug. 31 for its new home. The departure of the Reagan, which was operated in Operation Tomodachi to support Japan's northeastern region soon after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami disaster, is part of the three-carrier swap involving the Reagan, the Washington and the Theodore Roosevelt.
