Summary
| Description |
English: San Diego, Calif. (Sept. 12, 2003) -- The decommissioned aircraft carrier Constellation (CV 64) begins its transit from Naval Air Station North Island to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard as it passes by USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74). Constellation will be towed by a contracted ocean-going tug operated by Foss Maritime of Seattle, Wash. The transit is expected to take two weeks. The 41-year old ship recently completed its 21st deployment in support of Operations Enduring Freedom, Southern Watch and Iraqi Freedom in the Arabian Gulf. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Constellation Carrier Strike Group flew more than 1,500 sorties and expended more than a million pounds of ordnance. The carrier was decommissioned Aug. 7, and will be replaced in San Diego next year by USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). Constellation has been home ported in San Diego since 1962.
