As reported by Bremerton Patriot, the aircraft carrier will temporarily change its homeport from Everett to Naval Base Kitsap, Bremerton for the duration of the maintenance period.
The vessel, which ended a nine-month mission in December 2013, will undergo repairs at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility.
