Atlantic Ocean (Jun. 11, 2004) – The fast combat support ship USS Seattle (AOE 3) conducts an underway replenishment with the aircraft carrier USS John F. Kennedy (CV 67) and the guided missile cruiser USS Vicksburg (CG 69) simultaneously in the Atlantic Ocean. Seattle and Vicksburg are part of the John F. Kennedy Carrier Strike Group, currently involved in a joint exercise, known as Combined Joint Task Force Exercise. The exercise allows all services and several countries to train the way they fight – in a joint environment. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer’s Mate 2nd Class Michael Sandberg (RELEASED)
