George Washington returns to Yokosuka
TOKYO, Japan - Photo taken from a Kyodo News helicopter shows the U.S. aircraft carrier George Washington returning to its homeport of Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, on April 20, 2011. The nuclear-powered vessel left the port on March 21 to avoid misunderstanding that traces of radioactive materials detected on the ship might be a sign of a radiation leak from its own reactor following the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant triggered by the March 11 quake and tsunami disaster, U.S. Navy officials said.
