On May 28th, 2012 I was presented with the opportunity to cross off something that has been on my 'must do' list for many years; go onboard and photograph the air wing of a modern USN carrier. The George H W Bush, the latest - and last - Nimitz class CVN called at Stokes Bay, just outside Portsmouth for it's very first Liberty port visit following Exercise Saxon Warrior. CVW-8 was the airwing embarked.
