Attention all current and former FDNF-J naval officers! This year marks the celebration of 50 years of continuous FDNF-J Strike/Battle Group operations. CTF-70, Destroyer Squadron Fifteen, and Carrier Air Wing Five all arrived in Yokosuka, Japan in 1973 onboard USS MIDWAY. This year also marks a turnover of FDNF-J carriers as USS RONALD REAGAN is relieved by USS GEORGE WASHINGTON. To celebrate these two events we are hosting a Hail and Farewell for the wardrooms on REAGAN and WASHINGTON as well as an FDNF-J wardroom/ready room reunion onboard MIDWAY from 6 pm to 10 pm on Monday, July 29th. So if you are in the San Diego area and ever sailed or flew as part of the FDNF-J team, served on MIDWAY, INDEPENDENCE, KITTY HAWK, GW, or REAGAN, or served with DESRON 15, CVW 5, or CTF-70, or you just want to share sea stores about SEVENTH Fleet ops, please join us. #surfacenavyassociation, #tailhookassociation
I’m there
Sir, if I happen to find a reason to be in SD that week, I’ll be there.
See you there!
I’m in! Thanks for organizing.
Very cool!
