Ronald Reagan is the U.S. Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier and began its SRA for restoration work, maintenance and repairs after returning to Yokosuka last November from a six-month deployment in the Indo-Pacific region.
“A ship s maintenance availability is always a huge project, but specific to Ronald Reagan, we work through many additional challenges here in Japan,” said Capt. Fred Goldhammer, Commanding Officer of Ronald Reagan. “That said, the teamwork and exceptional quality of work that we enjoy from our partners among government workers and contractors – Americans and Japanese working side by side, together - are second to none, and our track record over the past several years proves it. Finishing the 2021 Selected Restricted Availability helps turn the page for our crew towards another new and exciting chapter in the history of our Navy s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier.”
